This year #TeamDizdar – led by Deputy Secretary, School Operations and Performance, Murat Dizdar – will face off against another 19 teams in the 10-week staff challenge.
“The challenge is a great way to work together to improve our wellbeing so I urge my colleagues to join a team,” Mr Dizdar said.
Reigning team champion Secretary Mark Scott encouraged students and staff to “put your best foot forward, many, many times”.
“To me, a great place to work includes the opportunity to have a little fun, do something that benefits my health and also allows me to promote that to others,” he said.
“I look forward to the challenge ahead and seeing you all pacing around the place.”
More than 400,000 students and 10,000 staff took part in the 2018 challenge, the largest uptake in the history of the challenge.
The NSW Premier’s Sporting Challenge is an annual program which encourages department students and staff to be physically active during the colder months of the year.
The program aims to support participation in physical activity, and promote health and wellbeing.
Employees across the department will be involved, with 20 teams captained by senior departmental leaders.
