Why celebrate Physical Education Week?
Physical Education Week offers South Australian students the chance to participate in a variety of activities and learn new skills.
We are most fortunate to capture the commitment and enthusiasm of numerous teachers, other professionals and volunteers, to ensure the Week appeals to and involves many local school communities.
This significant event is a great cause for celebration and an opportunity for you to showcase the things your school does well and how much you value this important part of the curriculum.
It’s the right time for us to stand up and be proud of the work we do and fly the flag for Health & Physical Education (Health & PE).
We invite your school to participate in this event, one of the largest weeks in the South Australian school calendar that celebrates the importance of active and healthy living in the lives of South Australian children.
We encourage you to join over 40,000 students, from more than 200 schools from all sectors, involving student’s families and local communities, to again ensure this week is the most significant Health & PE week of its kind in Australia.
We invite you to join with us in 2016 to celebrate our theme ‘Be Active, All ways!’
Physical Education Week provides an opportunity for classroom and Health & PE teachers to promote and incorporate health and wellbeing activities and events into their weekly planning.
Physical Education Week is a celebration of health and wellbeing; being active, learning about how to look after ourselves and encouraging schools and their communities to think about ideas and ways of working to incorporate this into their school in a sustainable way.
