RACV Energy Breakthrough

Students in Grades 5 and 6 have the opportunity to participate in the RACV Energy Breakthrough event in Maryborough.

In 2007, the school had two pushcart teams and two Human Powered Vehicle (HPV) teams. The teams are gender mixed, with each team comprising four boys and four girls. Students train for many months in the lead up to the events.

The Maryborough event is usually held in the last week of November, and has been running for many years.

Parents and staff actively support students in this event, and we strongly encourage and seek parental assistance and support for this program.

The HPV team also competed at Wonthaggi in 2007 and 2008. In 2008, one of the teams was lucky enough to finish 4th. Alongside our student team, a community team was also entered comprising of teachers and parents- the vehicle for this team was appropriately named 'Jelly Legs' and surprisingly enough finished 5th in the open category.
