Try Hip Hop Classes for Fourth Term

Want to try out Hip Hop dance in a really relaxed vibe? Taught by Northland Secondary Cert IV students, this is the real deal.

Next term's classes are brought to you by one of YFv3081's latest grant recipients, Hip Hop 3081's Get Down project.

This grant project comes from a group of young people attending the YFV3081 Try Hip Hop classes at Olympic Leisure Centre on Wednesday afternoons. The group are passionate about the positive affects of dancing on self-expression, confidence and fitness and want to continue the low price, pumping classes, so they made a YFV3081 project out of them! How cool is that?

Next term's classes start Wednesday October 14th at Olympic Leisure Centre West Heidelberg. You can just turn up. No bookings, no nothing but fun! It's $2. For 12-25 year olds.

YFV3081 Spring Season Grants Announced

There are four groups of young people who have been granted funds for their great projects this term.
St Pius X Primary School's Going Green project comes from a desire to teach younger kids to plant and eat healthy food. Going Green project is for the grade 5/6s to develop a procedure for planting vegetables, to film their procedure, to create a DVD and then teach junior primary and childcare centres their approach either face to face or through the DVD. They want to encourage young children in 3081 to create healthy futures.

Olympic Village Primary School's OVP Rolls project comes from a deep desire to be philanthropic in the area of health. The grade 5/6s are donating a wheel chair to Austin Hospital casualty for use by young people. They will raise the shortfall of $250 through fundraising at school. Their principal, Libby Young, says that this year's leadership group are deadly fundraisers! So there should be no worries about the extra cash to buy the chair.

Olympic Village Primary School's Wonga Well Being project comes from a deep devotion to animal wellbeing. The group from OVP will partner with Blue Cross Animal Shelter in Wonga Park (that's why the 'Wonga' in the project name!)to inoculate and care for 10 stray cats and 14 stray dogs. Yes! They got out the calculator and worked out the budget! They are really dedicated to animal rights and care.

Hip Hop 3081's Get Down project comes from a group of young people attending the YFV3081 Try Hip Hop classes at Olympic Leisure Centre on Wednesday afternoons.

The group are passionate about the positive affects of dancing on self-expression, confidence and fitness. Their grant continues to make the Try Hip Hop classes available for all 12-25 year olds next term starting Wednesday October 14th for eight weeks. You can just turn up.
