Year 11 HMS and VET Fitness students recently visited the Sports Hub at Blacktown Olympic Park to participate in a Student Enrichment Day hosted by Australian Catholic University (ACU). During the visit, students gained valuable insights that enhanced their understanding of exercise science and will support their learning as they complete upcoming assessment tasks. The day provided students with the opportunity to apply their theoretical knowledge through a range of practical activities. 🏃♂️💪 Students participated in hands-on experiences including lactate testing, hot and cold recovery therapy pools, and Wingate performance testing. These activities allowed students to explore how sport science is used to measure athletic performance and recovery. Overall, the excursion was an engaging and valuable learning experience for all students involved. 🙌👏
