JPC students reach new heights with High Performance Academy
John Paul College welcomes, Mr Josh Hall as the new High Performance Academy Co-ordinator, as he mentors students and aspiring athletes to reach their goals whilst creating elite habits to maintain a work-life balance.
Through the new High Performance Academy, Mr Hall will deploy injury prevention strategies alongside specialised key areas in sports nutrition, injury management and work-life balance. The High Performance Academy also offers students additional opportunities to excel through partnering with external bodies on the pathway to elitism.
At John Paul College our purpose is To Educate, To Inspire, and To Make a Difference through a variety of educational programs and techniques which push the status quo when it comes to learning and excellence. Mr Hall’s role as High Performance Academy Co-ordinator provides the support for students realising advanced athleticism through education and training to support their trajectory towards success.
In addition, JPC’s HighPerformance Academy is excited to announce its partnership with the Queensland Ballet. The new partnership will provide educational pathways and programs for students to work with professional dancers as they learn and develop their strength and flexibility.
‘Providing our students with the programs and facilities to perform and be at their best is what we strive for at JPC. We nurture the abilities of our students to ensure they perform at their best at competition level’ says Mrs Karen Spiller OAM CF, Principal of John Paul College.
‘Gifted and talented students should have the flexibility to embed their training into their academic educational journey at JPC to achieve a well-rounded education approach’ says Mrs Spiller.
‘I believe this is a great opportunity for promising athletes at JPC to experience the next level of training and culture which is practised at the mote elite sporting/dancing companies around the country’ says Mr Josh Hall, High Performance Academy Co-ordinator.
‘I wish I had the chance to part of a similar program at school as an up and coming athlete, it would have bettered my elite habits on and off the field and better prepared me for what was to come’ says Mr Hall.
