Junior Secondary Curriculum
YEAR 7 HPE
HEALTH
Students explore aspects of physical and mental health, focussed on how these influence on self - identity. There is a strong focus on respectful relationships where students compare and analyse roles and responsibilities of themselves, friends, and family, and explore the influence of beliefs, attitudes, opportunities, decisions, behaviours and actions. Students investigate various forms of bullying, including cyberbullying, and practise help - seeking behaviours in this context. Students explore the role food and nutrition has on the variety of dimensions of health, and complete practical tasks to apply theoretical understanding of maintaining a balanced life.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Students participate in Physical Education classes designed to build confidence and develop manipulative and locomotive skills in a supportive environment. They focus on developing specific skills and movements and use feedback from staff and peers to consolidate development. Students develop their understanding of a range of theoretical concepts which underpin Physical Education through to Year 12. These concepts are applied within a practical environment to consolidate learning. Concepts include recreational activities and safe choices when engaging in active transport within the wider community.
