Specialist programs

Find out about the specialist programs our school offers.

LOTE (Languages other than English) - Spanish

Learning a language:
  • helps students gain a broader cultural perspective
  • opens up career pathways
  • promotes social cohesion and cross-cultural understanding.
At Mil Lel the students participate in Spanish lessons twice per week with a specialist teacher.
Knowing languages is useful for many future areas of study including history, literature, music, art, business, economics and politics.  Immersion in a foreign culture opens up new avenues of self-exploration and personal growth.

Sports program

Students can develop team play and team building skills through our sports program and our specialist PE lessons. The program is run by our specialist PE teacher and at times volunteer parent coaches.
Our sports program includes:
  • SAPSASA events – all year 5 and 6 students are invited to trial for SAPSASA teams.  Some carnivals are local and organised by the school while others are in Adelaide and require students to travel with their family
  • extra-curricular team sports such as T-Ball, soccer and netball
  • Mil Lel Sports Day and District School Sports Day (for all small schools in the local area)
  • swimming lessons at the Wulanda Centre
  • Specialist coaching in various sports as available, including Sporting Schools grants
  • The Mil Lel skipping team which trains weekly and performs at the Mil Lel Show and school concert
