Personal Development, Health and Physical Education Subjects
Welcome to PDHPE.
In Stage 6, there are a number of pathways for students to extend their learning in the PDHPE Key Learning Area.
Personal Development, Health and Physical Activity (PDHPE) aims to develop in each student a capacity to think critically about key issues related to health and physical activity in order to make informed decisions that support and contribute to healthy, active lifestyles and communities.
Community and Family Studies (CAFS) aims to develop in each student an ability to manage resources and take action to support the needs of individuals, groups, families and communities in Australian society.
Sport, Leisure and Recreation Studies (SLR) is a NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) Content Endorsed Course which features a highly practical focus: physical activity being both an area of study and a medium for learning.
Exploring Early Childhood (EEC) is a NESA Content Endorsed Course which aims to develop understanding, skills and strategies to enable students to support and foster positive growth and development in the young children with whom they interact through the provision of safe, nurturing and challenging environments.
