OUR Olympic team will head to France for the Paris Olympics in July. At the time of publishing, 80 athletes across 10 sporting codes have been selected to represent Australia, with 49 Olympic debutantes among them.
At the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, Australia brought home 17 gold medals, seven silver, 22 bronze, bringing a total of 46 medals and ranking sixth in the Tokyo summer Olympics.
Excitement is building as our athletes prepare for the Paris Olympics. Until Friday, June 24, 2024, students can submit artworks that will be displayed throughout the Olympic Village.
The Village Art project offers students of all ages the chance to create and submit artwork, to be displayed on the walls of the athletes’ rooms and brighten up their home away from home during the Olympics.
The artworks are special to the athletes, providing a connection to home and messages of support like no other. Educators can use the Village Art Guide to complete this activity in the classroom. To learn more, go to www.olympics.com.au/games/paris-2024/village-art/
