Local schools in J Rock

Two Peninsula schools will be among 11 Central Coast schools to take part in the Sydney Rock Eisteddfod Challenge and J Rock, the junior equivalent, to be held at the Olympic Park Sports Centre from Monday, July 28, to Thursday, August 7.

Both Ettalong Public School and Woy Woy Public School will be performing on Thursday, August 6, in J Rock, the non-competitive section of Rock Eisteddfod Challenge for primary schools.

"J Rock gives students the opportunity to get fit and active with their friends, working as a team in a dance and drama spectacular," said publicity officer Ms Toni Byrnes.

"The event promotes the importance of healthy lifestyle choices by teaching students about the benefits of healthy eating and engaging them in physical activity."
