With a focus on popular and fundamental sports, our Sport Programs utilise movement and physical activities to develop core competencies during a child’s formative years. By doing so, it equips them with crucial life skills such as problem-solving, communication and emotional regulation that are essential for both school and adulthood.

TAG Sports will be integrated in to our weekly programs across our Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) & Early Learning services across The Atlantis Group and Tall Tree and have been specifically tailored for children up to the age of 12.

Physical Literacy

Physical literacy is the foundation of a lifelong love for movement.

It encompasses the skills, confidence and motivation to lead an active and healthy life. While it begins at birth, much of our understanding of movement and play is shaped during primary school.

To foster physical literacy, we have developed our own TAG Sports Physical Literacy Framework and have incorporated our unique sports program, into our OSHC and Early Learning curriculum, aiming to fuel young bodies and promote a lifetime of vitality.

This holistic concept integrates ability, mindset, community, and logic to support active and fulfilling lives. It unites efforts in childhood development and commits us to a lifetime of healthy behaviours.

Our TAG Coaches are recruited specifically for their passion, commitment to sport and are all Qualified Educators with extensive experience working in the Early Childhood Sector and with School Aged Children.
