Since the inception of SEISA some ten years ago, the purpose of the association has remained constant: to provide opportunities for students in the member schools to cultivate friendships, goodwill, co-operation, courtesy and to enjoy healthy competition. Through SEISA, students have the chance to participate in a broad range of both competitive and non-competitive sporting and cultural activities.
A great strength of SEISA has been the capacity of member schools to work collaboratively to review and develop the programs and competitions, to ensure they are meeting the needs of our students and providing challenges for growth. In recent years some of these developments have seen the inclusion of AFLW in the sporting competition and a new format for the Music and Dance Festivals which enable students across all schools to participate in workshops and share in combined performance opportunities.
Whether students choose to participate in the weekly sporting fixtures, annual sporting carnivals, specialty events or leadership programs they are contributing to the success of SEISA. Through these avenues students have the opportunity to shine and develop a sense of pride in both their personal achievements and the achievements of their school.
