This course aims to provide learning experiences for all students in a wide range of fundamental physical activities at Year 9. There is a strong focus on the 4 strands of the Health and Physical Education Curriculum. These include personal health and development, self management,  movement concepts with motor skills, relationship building with other people, and healthy communities and environments.  This is the first of a 2-year junior physical education program aimed at Levels 4 and 5 of the Physical Education Curriculum. All students are expected to work through a Physical Education and Health booklet with a cost of $10-00 per book, however free online copies are also accessible to students who choose to work online.
