Personal development, health and physical education

Personal Development, Health and Physical Education

... Today is your opportunity to build the tomorrow you want...

Personal development, health and physical education (PDHPE) is mandatory from Kindergarten to Year 10.

The courses we offer within the PDHPE faculty provides students with opportunities to explore issues that are likely to impact on the health, safety and wellbeing of themselves and others – now and in the future. Students also participate in challenging and enjoyable physical activity, improving their capacity to move with skill and confidence.

Along with a dedicated dance space, a fitness lab and 21^st Century learning class rooms, PDHPE regularly utilises local sporting facilities. Venues such as the Peninsula Leisure Centre, local sport fields and local waterways are  used to conduct our learning programs.
