“KIDDO took a lot of pressure off me — it’s easy to follow, flexible across year levels, and aligned with the curriculum, which makes planning in a remote school so much less stressful.”

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Do all teachers at my school need to participate?

No, however, we would highly encourage all teachers in each school to participate, there is the opportunity for classroom teachers to conduct brain breaks, morning fitness (games) and run their own year group sport. The more the merrier!

 

I am the school PE teacher, why do the classroom teachers need to participate?

With most students in Primary school only receiving a maximum of one 45-60 minute PE lesson a week, it is essential classroom teachers also have the skills, confidence, and resources to help encourage the development of Fundamental Movement Skills in their students. Whether this is part of morning fitness, 3 x 5/10-minute daily brain breaks, or a 20-minute session three times a week it adds value to the work being done in the PE program. Additionally, if the early childhood teachers are responsible for their own Fundamental Movement Skill Programs, this is an ideal opportunity to provide additional resources to assist them with their programming and delivery.

 

I want to start our schools scholarship before January 2026!

Great to hear you’re eager to get started, we can absolutely make that happen! We just ask that the person using the KIDDO program will still be at your school in 2026. Please note, your two-year membership will begin from the date you sign up, so it will finish a little earlier than schools who start later.

 

If we want to continue our KIDDO membership after the 2-year membership has expired, what will be the ongoing cost for our school?

The cost of a 12-month KIDDO membership is $499 + $2 per child in T – Yr 6. For example, if you have 250 students in T – Yr 6 your fee for your 12-month membership would be $999.
