Physical Education

Please wear appropriate shoes to PE. Wearing appropriate shoes to PE can help reduce injury when exercising.  

Our goal is to help students become physically literate individuals.
 

Physical literacy is the ability to move with competence and confidence in a wide variety of physical activities, across multiple environments, contributing to the healthy development of the whole person.

Through learning experiences in physical education, students will:

  1. Develop a variety of motor skills which are a foundational part of child development and support the movements of everyday life. 
  2. Apply knowledge of movement principles, fitness concepts, and safety practices to enhance performance and lifelong health.
  3. Demonstrate social skills such as cooperation, respect, and teamwork through shared movement experiences.
  4. Develop personal responsibility and motivation by identifying personal benefits of movement and choosing to engage in physical activity for enjoyment, health, and well-being.
