NSWIS LIGHTS UP – SHANE ROSE – OLYMPIAN

Shane Rose was introduced to horse riding as a five-year-old when he was enrolled as a member of the Forest Hills Pony Club, and it was love at first ride – although, his first pony Mickey Mouse was nothing like the loveable Disney character.

When Rose realised he didn’t possess the height or speed that was required to pursue a rugby career at the famous Warringah Rats, he focussed his attention on horse riding. After finishing high school his parents paid for him to go to England, and then ranches in America, to learn the horse trade. The trip opened Rose’s eyes to the world he wanted to be a part of, and upon his return to Australia he took his first tentative steps of turning his passion for horses into a successful and respected business.

Horse riding comes with dangers, but Roses’s worse injury occurred out of the saddle when a young thoroughbred he was teaching to go into a starting gate kicked out and connected with the bottom of the face. The damage was horrendous. Besides being in a coma for a week and requiring blood transfusions, surgeons asked Rose’s wife to provide them with a photo so they could rebuild his face.

NSWIS LIGHTS UP – TILLY KEARNS – OLYMPIAN

Growing up with a father who was an Australian Rugby Union Wallaby legend, Tilly Kearns was inspired from a young age to represent her country in sport. She provides an insight into her family and how they have been instrumental in instilling values to help her become the athlete she is, that is hard work and achieving quietly – hitting your goals with humility.

She grew up loving the water, was a decent swimmer and dreamt about being an Olympic butterfly swimmer. Olympian Geoff Huegill, who won two Olympic medals and six world champion titles, including 50 metres butterfly was her idol. Not knowing anything about water polo, Tilly put up her hand to help out a school team which needed an extra player. She was ‘thrown in the deep end’ and from that moment on loved water polo. She shares her love of challenges and pressure.

Brain and muscle communication, are you as fast as you can think?

Test your brain and see how quickly it can process information and react to different stimulus. Learn about cognitive traits and train your reaction time whilst playing a fun didactic videogame Year 7 – S4 Year 8 – S4 Year 9 – S5 Year 10 – S5 Brain and muscle communication, are you as fast as you can think? Our central nervous system (the brain) controls many physiological systems in our bodies, and a very important one is movement. Our brain communicates with our muscles allowing us to perform daily activities. Just as we can train our muscles to become stronger, we can train our brains to process information quicker. There can be large variability between individuals regarding brain-muscle communication. For example, this can be easily observed when some people are better at one sporting activity than others.

Join exercise scientist and dietitian, Karen Mackay, in exploring different brain- muscle activities and learn more about the important role our brain plays within movement. Put your students to the test and see how well they perform in different cognitive traits through the app REACTION PACKED. Here, students will collect data using games that combine decision making, movement and memory, so they can test their hypothesis, answer research questions, and come to conclusions.
