Testimonials
We like the Bush Fit Mob program because it gives our kids opportunities to play more sports and to travel outside of the community to engage in sport. The Bush Fit Mob program is helping our kids to live a healthy lifestyle which makes us happy

I like when Bush Fit Mob comes to my school because they help me to learn about leadership, playing fair and having respect for team players and coaches. I am becoming more active, having fun and feeling strong in both mind and body.

Student - Angurugu School
The Bush Fit Mob program is excellent for Angurugu and I have never seen anything like it in any school that I have worked in. The Bush Fit Mob program has made a significant impact with school attendance and the focus on healthy lifestyles and being positive role models for the students has been very important.
