Physical Education
Our Physical Education program focuses on the importance of a healthy lifestyle and physical activity. It promotes the importance of developing motor skills and movement competence. Sport has a positive effect on student's self esteem and social interaction and this is important for our skills in every day life.
Students will be doing many activities which help to improve their Gross Motor Skills, and learn about playing team sports. We will focus on catching, throwing and kicking skills so that we can move on to learning various sports such as netball, soccer, basketball, cricket and tee ball. There is also a strong focus on Athletics training.
The Junior school grades, Prep to Two, take part in the Perceptual Motor Program (PMP) using a range of specially designed equipment. This is an area most students really enjoy.
Year 3-6 students have the opportunity to compete at District events in the fields of Cross Country, Swimming and Athletics. During Fourth Term we play Interschool Sports at Bunyip Primary School against other Primary Schools in our district and this is often one of the highlights for the students.
