Physical Education and<br />

Health<br />

As always it’s been an exciting, productive and busy year in the Physical Education<br />

and Health Department. Here are just some of our highlights.<br />

This year our junior<br />

programme was jampacked<br />

with a variety of<br />

sports and activities. Our<br />

students have been looking<br />

at different strategies and<br />

tactics within a variety of<br />

games and working out<br />

which ones work best.<br />

They have also been working<br />

on their interpersonal skills<br />

and how to cooperate within a<br />

team setting. We have looked<br />

at different ways to test and<br />

improve our fitness through<br />

different fitness tests and<br />

methods of training. It has<br />

been great to see the students<br />

learn how the body reacts<br />

to physical exercise and the<br />

impact training can have on<br />

performance.<br />

Our Year 11 core PE<br />

programme had five<br />

Achievement Standards<br />

this year and so it was a<br />

busy programme.<br />

The students cover a variety of<br />

different activities including<br />

swimming, volleyball, touch, fitness,<br />

basketball and many<br />

others. Students work on<br />

improving their interpersonal<br />

skills within a team, selfmanagement<br />

strategies<br />

for their own personal<br />

performance and look to<br />

perform a sport or activity<br />

to the highest level they can<br />

achieve.<br />
