In Term 2, the Year 10 Physical Education ‘Community Recreation’ unit explored local leisure/recreation options and proposed excursion options in the community. This was designed to provide students with a fun social engagement with their peers and to be active at the same time, rather than interacting predominantly in a sedentary manner via social media. Students had to research travel options and present their proposed activity, then debate and persuade the class why they should vote for that activity, whilst keeping to a budget. In class we also investigated the benefits to all areas of students’ health and wellbeing (physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual) through continuing to engage in life long physical activity.
