Year 8 PDHPE Update
This term, Year 8 PDHPE students have embraced a dynamic program that balanced physical activity with meaningful classroom discussions.
Out on the field, students have been actively involved in the unit, ‘Stick it out’, exploring sports such as lacrosse, hockey, and croquet. They have given these lessons their all and done so with enthusiasm. For the remainder of the term, students will be exploring a range of Indigenous games, not only promoting teamwork but providing space for appreciation and conversations about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and history.
In the classroom, students wrapped up the ‘Risky Business’ unit, where they explored the impacts of vaping, drug use, and the importance of making informed decisions. They are now exploring grief and loss, how it might impact people and how to support others. Developing emotional literacy and strategies to increase their own wellbeing.
We are proud of Year 8 students and their effort, curiosity, and positive attitude shown in PDHPE so far this term!
