Built for Balance
Wenona has formally launched its Talented Athlete Program (TAP), a pilot initiative designed to support students competing in elite sport while maintaining the academic demands of a full school timetable as they balance competing priorities.
The program recognises a reality familiar to many of our young athletes; high-level training rarely fits neatly around assignment deadlines and examination blocks. TAP provides a structured framework to help students pursue excellence in both arenas, rather than compromising one or the other.
