Sport 4 Schools offers an exciting 10 week Circus Skills Program for Primary Schools. During this fun program children are taught the basics of circus skills. Equipment is set up in stations where children rotate through each station and learn how to use each piece of equipment whilst practicing skills and tricks. Challenges are added as the term progresses. Circus skills are great for concentration, hand eye co ordination & motor skills. At the end of the term we finish off with a fun talent quest where students show what they have learnt and also have the opportunity to win prizes. Classes run for 30 - 45 minutes.
