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 />
