PHYSICAL EDUCATION<br />
Physical Education is a vital part of the students’<br />
lives at the <strong>SRSS</strong>. Through well-developed<br />
programming, students can develop and<br />
maintain a better level of physical fitness,<br />
develop skills in various activities and cultivate<br />
personal relationships in situations requiring<br />
sportsmanship, competition, cooperation and<br />
leadership. Students are encouraged to take<br />
greater ownership of physical fitness, seek out<br />
activities that interest them, and engage in an<br />
active lifestyle.<br />
There are 5 main learning outcomes of the<br />
Physical Education program. These are based<br />
on the K to Grade 12 Physical Education and<br />
Health Curriculum. The learning outcomes are;<br />
movement, fitness management, safety,<br />
personal and social management, and healthy<br />
lifestyle practices. Through these learning<br />
outcomes the <strong>SRSS</strong> Phys. Ed program are<br />
geared toward helping students attain a better<br />
understanding and appreciation of their own<br />
physical fitness. The PE program strives to<br />
provide students with the opportunities,<br />
experiences, and knowledge of personal fitness<br />
and sports activities to allow them to set their<br />
own course for fitness.<br />
As part of earning a credit for these courses,<br />
students will be required to submit a personal<br />
fitness portfolio containing elements such as a<br />
fitness plan, physical activity log, or journal<br />
entries. Students will be graded for completion<br />
of the course with a Complete or Incomplete<br />
designation. (Grade 11 and 12 only)<br />
