Cocos Catch
Cocos Islands DHS – From uncertainty to confident PE delivery

Faced with limited PE expertise and uncertainty about what to teach, teachers needed a clear, curriculum-aligned framework. KIDDO's ready-to-use lesson plans, assessments, and teaching cues have made planning and teaching simple and built staff confidence. The structure and flexibility have allowed lessons to be adapted to different classes, ensuring every child develops movement skills from K-6. The result: confident teachers, engaged students, and a consistent PE approach across the school.

Minyerri Undercover
Minyerri School – Flexible tools, real impact in the NT outback

Teachers wanted more structure and variety in PE while still being able to adapt for different ages and abilities. The KIDDO platform has provided one-hour lessons, games, and movement breaks, giving teachers ready-made ways to keep students active in PE and throughout the day, boosting wellbeing. Assessments like FMS (K-2) and CAMSA (3-6) guide priorities, helping teachers target the skills students need most. The result is stronger teacher confidence, improved behaviour, better attendance, and a culture of daily movement.

Parachute
Borroloola School – Building inclusive PE

Staff needed a way to make PE engaging, consistent, and inclusive for all students, including those with additional needs. During a 30-day trial, KIDDO’s lesson plans, daily movement activities, and assessments proved transformative. Teachers used the data to inform IEPs, NCCD documentation, and allied health programs, ensuring targeted support for every child. What started as a trial became a sustainable, whole-school approach to PE and wellbeing.

Rockhampton Net
Rockhampton Grammar School – From games to a whole-school strategy

Teachers wanted a more consistent and evidence-based way to teach movement skills across year levels. Since 2020 KIDDO’s resources, assessments, and professional development have given staff the tools and confidence to deliver high-quality lessons with measurable results. Catchy skill-teaching cues boosted engagement, while data showed real progress—like faster sprint times in just months. Over time, PE improvements have grown into a school-wide movement culture embedded in daily routines.
