PHYSICAL EDUCATION - Full Year
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mrs N. Marshall.
In PE we don’t just talk about it, we will do it!
We move, because movement is absolutely fundamental to our wellbeing. In Level 1 Physical Education we will explore the incredible adaptations that happen to the body and mind when we move. We will investigate questions such as:
Are great athletes born or made?
What's the difference between their bodies and mine?
How do they train their minds and bodies?
What is mental toughness? Are we born with it?
What makes a champion team instead of a team of champions?
Do I have what it takes?
As well as learning about the fascinating human body, you will challenge your own mind and body in a wide range of practical activities. Do you have what it takes to challenge yourself to achieve difficult things like those elite athletes? Can you curl a football? Can you replicate a Tik Tok balance, do a backflip or help the team to victory? Let's find out.
Strong people lift others up - with an emphasis on teamwork and relating positively to others we will create an environment where everyone is encouraged to challenge themselves and be the best they can be - not just talk about it.
He oranga ngākau, he pikinga waiora. Positive feelings in your heart will raise your sense of self-worth.
