St Francis Xavier College takes the wellbeing of its college community seriously. Physical education teacher Darren Thomas has been running a 6 week Better Man free community fitness program for men only in the evenings.

Men from all walks of life and different fitness levels have benefited with sessions that focus on men’s health and wellbeing as well as fitness and cooking programs.

Darren has invited professionals in men’s health and nutrition to speak to the group and has secured amazing sponsorship from The Body Hub Officer and Cardinia Life which generously offered a free 3 month membership to all the men who signed up for the Better Man program.

All the participants have enjoyed the sessions and the support they have received from each other and are looking forward to next year when the Better Man program starts again.

In the meantime, Darren has started the Every Woman free health and fitness program for the college’s female community and is looking forward to the same success.
