Year 9 Health & Physical Education

In Health and Physical Education, the focus is on the well-being of the students themselves, of other people, and of society through learning in health-related and movement contexts. The main aim of Physical Education is to get students engaged in regular physical activity in a variety of movement contexts. 

Through learning and by accepting challenges in health-related and movement contexts, students reflect on the nature of well-being and how to promote it. As they develop resilience and a sense of personal and social responsibility, they are increasingly able to take responsibility for themselves and contribute to the well-being of those around them, of their communities, of their environments (including natural environments), and of the wider society.

Students will part-take in a wide range of movement contexts throughout the year and utilise school and community resources. 

Students will undertake 2 hours of Physical Education a week and 1 hour of Health Education a week.
