Reflecting on another successful year in the Health and Physical Education Faculty, our commitment to promoting lifelong physical activity and healthy living remains steadfast.

This year, students engaged in a diverse range of activities fostering involvement in physical activity and promoting all dimensions of health and wellbeing. Additionally, our Health curriculum addressed essential topics such as Digital Safety, Sexuality, Respectful Relationships, Consent, and Mental Health, equipping students with the tools to navigate their adolescent years. 

Year 7 students delighted in their first experiences in the gymnasium and explored Dance, developing teamwork and self-expression. Year 8 students discovered the fastest growing sport globally of Pickleball. Additionally, they participated in a Soccer Unit through the Sport Education Physical Education Program, which emphasises critical thinking, leadership, and collaboration. 

Year 9 students designed fitness lessons for their peers, enhancing their understanding of fitness components while also participating in Water Polo, Tennis and Football. Year 10 students investigated the effects of exercise on the body and studied the role nutrition plays in fuelling the body for peak performance.  

Year 11 Physical Education students explored contemporary issues of physical and intellectual development through ‘Goal Ball,’ a Paralympic sport that simulates visual impairment. This unique experience offered insights into the challenges faced by athletes with disabilities.  

Thank you to our passionate educators, whose unwavering commitment inspires excellence in Health and Physical Education every day.
