Physical education at St John Bosco’s is focused on skills and enjoyment to encourage lifelong physical activity participation. Students are taught fundamental movement skills and concepts to allow them to confidently participate in a range of games and sports. Our school dispositions play a large part in physical education lessons as we hope to promote cooperation, resilience and reflective learners.
Teamwork and cooperation is a large part of all physical education lessons which helps the students build confidence and resilience.
