Health

Every fortnight, students from Pre-Primary to Year 6 undertake a 60 minute Health lesson which is facilitated by Mrs Pansini or Ms Tabain. The Health Program focuses on various areas of safety necessary for individuals to lead a healthy, safe and active life. The learning opportunities provided to students develop and enhance attitudes and values that promote and foster a healthy lifestyle. The Health Curriculum (P – 6) offers students an experimental curriculum that is challenging, enjoyable and relevant.

Within the school year, students are supported and provided with opportunities to build on their understanding and knowledge through relevant and engaging lessons. A variety of incursions including the RAC, TransPerth, Cockburn Healthy Lifestyle Services, cooking experiences and other engaging and fun activities are facilitated to support the student’s understanding. The Health Program aligns with the schools strategic planning, our Business Plan and the Department’s Strategic directions and is designed to increase students’ awareness to positively influence their own and others’ health and wellbeing.

Our lessons support all students to develop the necessary knowledge, understandings and attitudes that lead to positive choices and behaviours which will enable them to lead safe, healthy lives, whilst at school and into their post school lives.
