Gyms renewed
In a bright note in this pandemic-affected year, our sports staff have completed the renovation of both the St Kilda Road and Glen Waverley Gymnasiums, with new equipment now installed and ready for students’ use.
The Wesley Foundation was pleased to provide financial support for this project courtesy of the generous donations of community members. Our strength and conditioning coaches worked closely with the company Novofit to select state-of-the-art equipment best suited to meet the needs of our students. The result? Two outstanding upgrades to our strength and conditioning areas – on budget.
With fit-outs at both campuses completed in August, Mark Hibbins and Peter Schwab look forward to strength and conditioning coaches Curtis Collins and Aiden Harvey providing opportunities for students to train and learn the fundamentals of appropriate weight training.
Wesley Sport will now turn its attention to providing our rowing program with a similar standard of equipment at our Boathouse, continuing the College’s commitment to providing students with first-rate equipment and coaching in the vital area of strength and conditioning. The Foundation has established funds through the Australian Sports Foundation where tax deductible donations can be made to support this project.
