Little Shredders - Term 3 grants now open

Published Fri 28 Jun 2019

Term 3 Sporting School grants are now open, so it’s the perfect time to help introduce Little Shredders to a school near you!

Little Shredders is an SSA developed learning and participation program that uses modified equipment and games to introduce children to snowsports.

Children can learn about snow safety whilst acquiring fundamental balance, agility and co-ordination skills to help prepare them for their first on-snow experience – all from the safety of their school gymnasium.

Little Shredders can be delivered easily to any primary school throughout Australia as part of the PE curriculum. Many schools are able to access the program through funding from the Sporting Schools Initiative.

Little Shredders is a great way to start or strengthen a snowsports program at your school and get children involved in snowsports.

Help spread the word this Winter and ask your school to take on Little Shredders!

For ACT schools, there is also a new offering; Little Gliders, which is similar to Little Shredders, but teaches children the basics of cross country skiing.
