The Health and Physical Education (HPE) learning area stands as a cornerstone of holistic development, promoting physical well-being, mental resilience, and social-emotional competence. Rooted in the principles of promoting lifelong health and active lifestyles, this curriculum nurtures essential skills and attitudes that empower students to thrive in a diverse and rapidly changing world.
At its core, the HPE curriculum emphasises the integration of physical activity with personal and social responsibility. It encourages students to develop fundamental movement skills, engage in regular physical activity, and make informed decisions that enhance their overall health and well-being. Through a balanced approach that addresses physical, mental, emotional, and social dimensions of health, learners are equipped with strategies to manage challenges, build resilience, and foster positive relationships.
