Event Report - SPEA AGM 2025

This year, SPEA celebrate its 50th year of service to the Physical Education fraternity. As part of  this commemoration:

A special edition of the SPEA newsletter - the SPEA50 Jubilee Edition - will be released, organised around the themes of Past, Present, and Possibilities. The edition will feature reflective pieces, professional insights, and perspectives on the future of PE in Singapore.

The SPEA 50th Anniversary Dinner will be held on 19 September 2025 at Summer Garden Restaurant, Mount Faber SAFRA. The event will serve as both a celebration of SPEA's legacy and a gathering of friends and colleagues across generations of PE practitioners.

The dinner will also feature the presentation of the Outstanding PE Teacher Award (OPETA), Outstanding Teacher-Coach Award (OTCA), and the newly launched Outstanding SPED PE Teacher Award (OSPETA)—affirming SPEA's commitment to recognising excellence across diverse educational settings.

To allow SPEA to deliver valuable and relevant content to members and followers, it has started using data analytics to evaluate the effectiveness of its key outreach platforms, particularly the association's online newsletter. We are pleased to note that we have averaged about 30 views per day, and our international readership has gone beyond Singapore.

From January 2025 to March 2025 alone, the SPEA website recorded:

• 2,796 page views (30 views per day),

• 1,300 new visitors, and

• International readership spanning Singapore, the US, China, and the Philippines.

Such data-driven insights guide valued content and outreach strategies for PE and sports educators. It also reinforces SPEA's presence locally and globally in the broader PE landscape. We encourage members to leverage this platform to share promising and good practices in PE.
