Year 10 Physical Education

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mrs N. Johnson.

Year 10 Physical Education

In junior Physical Education we have two main focus points. Firstly improving basic fundamental movement skills such as locomotion, throwing, catching, striking and balance. These form the basis of all sports and physical activity and are vital for allowing us to successfully sustain physical activity throughout our lifetime. Secondly we focus on interpersonal skills and being able to work with others. These skills are important as they can be transferred into many areas of our life. We work through these skills on a three tiered program focusing on discovery, development and consolidating.

In Year 10 Physical Education we explore these skills through the following topics - 

Term One - Swimming, athletics, and fitness. 

Term Two - Theme of throwing and catching (juggling, cricket and volleyball)

Term Three - Theme of locomotion, stability and balance (tackle rugby and movement)

Term Four - Theme of striking with implement (softball)
