Year 10 Physical Education

Year 10 Physical Education at John Paul II High School will expose you to a range of new activities, all of which are accompanied by a theoretical component.  Curriculum coverage is divided through the four terms as follows;

 Term One focuses on an intensive Athletics study using the Adidas Five Star Award Scheme at the Year 10 level and then goes on to include such topics as Fitness Studies, hockey and badminton.

 Term Two touches on Gymnastics, Fair Play and Touch Rugby.   This is followed by a Body Systems unit to investigate the benefits of regular physical activity. 

 Term Three has a Camp theme and focuses on the acquisition of bushcraft skills and knowledge, which leads on to a four day camp. Fitness testing continues for all students. 

Term Four concludes the year with programmes in cricket, aquatics and squash.  Students will finish by completing an evaluation on local recreational services.
