Our Defence students recently enjoyed an unforgettable experience at Alberton Oval, thanks to the Power to Thrive program in partnership with the Port Adelaide Football Club.

Held at one of South Australia’s most iconic sporting venues, the visit gave students the chance to connect with both AFL and AFLW players, take part in fun and fast-paced skill-based games, and immerse themselves in the electric atmosphere of professional football.

The day was filled with teamwork, laughter, and valuable moments that brought students together through sport.

We extend a heartfelt thank you to Port Adelaide for their warm hospitality and for creating such a memorable experience for our students. Programs like Power to Thrive play a vital role in building confidence, connection, and community spirit.
