Physical Education & Health

At Albert Street (Moe) Primary School we nurture and encourage children to participate in athletic pursuits of various kinds.  The children are able to participate in specific programs that enhance their knowledge of a particular sport and develop the skills required.  Physical Education is taught as a specialist program where the children are taught the fundamental motor skills as well as other various skills.  Health is taught within the classroom with specific programs for older students such as Drug and Sex Education.

Fitness is a positive approach to health and to the development of a more rewarding quality of life.  Our fitness program will encourage children to participate in physical activities and everyday events.

The key learning areas (KLA's), Health and PE, promotes an understanding of the importance of personal and community actions in promoting health and lifelong participation in physical activity, and of the crucial role that supportive physical and social environments play in the development of the health of individuals and communities.

This key learning area helps young people learn about factors, including nutrition, that promote and protect the physical, social and emotional health of individuals, families and communities, and the range of health-related services and products available in the community. They learn to identify the harms associated with particular situations and behaviours, and how to take action to minimise these harms. They consider personal and community rights and responsibilities, and the cultural and social diversity of Australia in relation to health and safety, so that they are informed in making decisions about their own and others' lives.
