FOOTBALL

PRIMARY The Huddle Schools Football Program encourages year 3-4 students to learn football skills and co-operative behaviours in a fun, safe and positive learning environment. The program reinforces the importance of active lifestyles and of working in a team. It is delivered through 4x1 hour sessions in schools with classroom-based activities to increase language, literacy and numeracy to support learning about Australian Rules Football. The program caters for learners from a range of backgrounds and with differing levels of exposure to football.

SECONDARYAFL 9s is a new, alternative game of football that is gaining popularity across the country and the Huddle is delighted to introduce the game to young people. The AFL9s Program encourages students from diverse backgrounds and ability in sport an opportunity to participate. Messages around teamwork, sportsmanship, respect and fair play are a key element of the program. The AFL9s Program can be delivered in schools over a 4-week period during class time, lunchtime or after school. Students may receive expert coaching sessions from NMFC players, prizes and a match ticket to a Kangaroos game. A taster session can also be delivered at your school.


ACADEMIES Multicultural, Girls and Indigenous Academies for 10-14 year olds

The Huddle continues to support pathways for students into football and to increase their confidence and participation both on and off the field. Using the clubs players as mentors, the academies nurture relationships and empower students to maximize their potential.

Participants meet at The Huddle to learn footy skills alongside learning about culture, teamwork, sportsmanship, health and nutrition. The academies aim to increase positive behaviours and build confidence. Activities are held out of schools hours and participants benefit from a range of opportunities such as playing a match, free tickets to a Kangaroos game and referral to a junior football club and further Huddle activities.

The Academies are supported by MAYSAR, The Australian Multicultural Foundation and AFL Victoria and increase opportunities for young people.

STUDY SUPPORT PROGRAM

The Huddles study support program for 15-25 year olds increases learning opportunities for young people by providing subject specific tutoring, access to internet and learning technologies, and language support for students for whom English is an additional language.

Students self refer to the program and are paired with a tutor once their educational needs and aspirations have been determined by the teacher co-ordinator of the program. The program allows for differentiated learning, group work and 1:1 and is responsive to individual learning styles and needs.

In 2012, the program will expand to operate from 4-7pm, 4 nights per week and for 4 hours on weekends.

The Huddle Scholarship for Young People (ESL)The Huddle Scholarship for Young People offers the student a mentor that supports their pathway into tertiary education or work. Students are immersed in a supportive study environment within a community and sport complex hence there is the potential to build networks and promote work/life balance through various activities at Arden Street.

The Huddle offers 15 places to school students of ESL or refugee backgrounds for Mentorship and Tutoring support.


Study skills for 15-25 year oldsSound study and organizational skills encourage active life-long learning. The Huddle offers a 3-hour course to reinforce strong study skills to complement our approach in The Huddle Study Support Program.

Through the course, students identify their own strengths and weaknesses in their learning style and they learn to create a quality study environment. They develop critical and creative thinking for decision-making and problem solving and think about how to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of websites. Taking effective notes and studying for objective, subjective, and performance evaluations are also a focus.

There are 15 places available students can email [email protected] to register their interest.

Courses are scheduled for Saturday 11 February and 28 April, 2012, 9.30am-12.30pm
