PE

Welcome back to Term 1! We hope you and your families had a restful and enjoyable holiday break. It’s been wonderful welcoming students back to school and reconnecting with families as we begin another exciting year of learning together. Term 1 is a time for settling back into routines, building relationships, and supporting students to feel safe, confident, and ready to learn.

This term in Physical Education, students will be learning through movement, with a strong focus on participation, cooperation, and positive social interactions. Learning will include engaging in structured individual activities, participating in familiar movement routines as part of a group, and contributing to shared physical activities with peers and familiar adults. Students will be supported to work cooperatively, respond positively to others’ ideas, and practise simple strategies for taking turns, sharing space, and working together. As part of this learning, students will also be introduced to the sport of hockey, exploring basic skills and equipment in a fun, supportive, and inclusive way.
