At Harvest Home Primary School, Physical Education is designed to help students develop the skills, knowledge and attitudes necessary to incorporate regular physical activity into their daily lives.
Physical Education is a comprehensive subject encompassing fitness, movement skills, recreation, health, games and sport, along with the values that underpin these areas.
In our full-sized sports stadium, the curriculum centres on Movement and Physical Activity, emphasising body movement, understanding movement concepts and learning through engaging physical experiences.
Our specialist Physical Education program follows a structured progression, focusing on motor skill development, physical fitness and knowledge through differentiated instruction. Students begin with creative, enjoyable activities that build fundamental movement patterns and develop an understanding of play, competition, teamwork, strategy and equipment safety.
Throughout all lessons, maximising participation, enjoyment and safety remains a top priority.
We aim for students to carry these lessons beyond the classroom, applying the importance of physical activity and fitness to various sports and recreational activities both at school and within the broader community.
