Olympics Unleashed is inspiring young Australians to unleash their passion! Olympics Unleashed is taking athletes into NSW classrooms to inspire and motivate students to be their personal best. Olympians and athletes aspiring for Tokyo 2020 and beyond are excited to visit your school to help young Australians be the best version of themselves – whether that’s in the classroom, the playground, the sporting field or at home. Presented in an interactive and engaging way, athletes will share how they have set goals, overcome challenges and demonstrated resilience throughout their Olympic journey. The 45-minute presentations are aimed at Year 9. Olympics Unleashed is free for schools and is supported by the New South Wales Government and the Australian Olympic Committee.
