PHYSICAL EDUCATION - Full Year

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.
