s e s s a l C n o i t a c u d E l a c i s y Ph This year in Physical Education we looked to build on the renewed interest in various fun physical activities that started to grow last year. We incorporated several cross-curricular elements that combined teaching subjects with Physical Education. The girls thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to use their Mathematical measuring skills while completing sporting activities as well as being able to create cultural dances with the knowledge they acquired in PSW. We covered a wide range of units this year from first aid to adventurous obstacles which appealed to the various desires and needs of our girls. By creating an environment where failure is regarded as just the first step to success, our girls thrived in taking on challenges and learning new skills.

Smaller groups ensured that our dancers received the attention they needed to get fit and to produce quality dance moves. We were delighted with the progress our learners made this year. At the end of term three, our “Zumba Zensations” treated the school to a showcase dance at final assembly and they were excellent! 82
