Programs & Pathways
SEEDLINGS
SEEDLINGS is a Friday sport and teamwork program that brings together our Year 5 and 6 students from across the college, helping them develop skills, confidence, connection, and school pride through a range of sporting opportunities.
Each Friday, our Year 6 students participate in the off-site SEEDLINGS program at Tallis Campus and Windsor Oval, where they train and compete in selected district sports in preparation for the Winter and Summer Lightning Premierships against other districts. Students choose from activities including volleyball, netball, football, T-ball and soccer, building teamwork and connections with peers across campuses while gaining an early understanding of the wider SEED program.
Our Year 5 students remain on campus and take part in a development-focused program where they rotate through all sports, allowing them to build skills, confidence and discover the sport they would like to further develop in Year 6.
SEEDLINGS is a highlight of the week for many students, offering a fun and engaging way to stay active, build friendships and strengthen their sense of belonging within the Northern Bay College community.
