Esports at Ormeau State School
There are many different perspectives on what constitutes electronic sports, or esports, but put simply, esports is competitive video gaming at a structured and team-based level.
The main aim of the Ormeau State School esports club is to develop positive gaming behaviours and educate students on topics such as digital wellbeing, sportsmanship, teamwork, and making healthy gaming choices. These skills are taught in a safe, supportive, and structured environment.
The club is offered as a lunchtime extracurricular opportunity for students in Years 4 to 6. Students participate in coaching sessions, skill development, and a range of collaborative team-based experiences.
The games selected for the esports program are age-appropriate and are played on the Nintendo Switch platform. This allows students to engage in a safe, supervised environment while building their skills and confidence.
Along with many other state and private schools, we are proud to be a member of the FUSE Cup, providing students with opportunities to participate in structured interschool esports events.
Our esports club is provided at no cost to students, with all equipment and resources supplied by the school and the P&C.
Due to high interest, places in the club are limited. Information about future opportunities to join will be shared with the school community when available.
