Koo Wee Rup Primary School provides a high quality Physical Education program for every child. It is designed to prepare students for a healthy and active lifestyle through the development of skills, knowledge, teamwork and positive attitudes. Our comprehensive program provides children with a wide range of physical and sporting experiences focusing on the sequential development of fundamental motor and locomotion skills, gymnastics, dance, athletics, fitness and sport education.
To implement the P.E. program, we have access to a hall, oval, basketball, netball and volleyball court. We also have a range of equipment that ensures a variety of exciting new experiences each session. Various lunch time coaching programs are also offered throughout the term.
Our specialist Physical Education teacher, Steven Dillon leads skill based Physical Education programs with Prep - Year 6 children each week. Children in the junior school learn and practice the correct techniques for running, hopping, jumping, skipping, catching, throwing, kicking, rolling, balancing, twisting and turning. While those in the middle and senior school will develop the capacity to link these skills into more complex and coordinated movement sequences. As students develop increasingly complex motor skills, they will be given opportunities to then apply these to appropriately modified games and sport-specific settings.
At the beginning of the year a strong emphasis is placed on promoting teamwork and goal setting. Some of the goals classes set to achieve this year include:
- Encourage & cooperate each other
- Have fun
- Play safely and sensibly
- Respect each other and the equipment
- Stop, look and listen when you hear the whistle
- Always try our best
