Go Girls is a class where girls can participate in both theoretical and practical activities in the Warrnambool community to enable them to implement and evaluate personalised plans for improving or maintaining their own and others’ physical activity and fitness levels. Girls will also develop knowledge and skill in understanding mental health, nutrition, respectful relationships and sexual health. 

What will I learn?

Students learn to identify and critique the accessibility and effectiveness of support services based in the community that impact on the ability to make healthy and safe choices. Also, they will investigate how empathy and ethical decision-making contribute to respectful relationships within our community. 

What will I do?

Students will participate in single gender Health & PE classes, learn about respectful relationships and ethical decisions; whilst enjoying participating in varied physical activities.

Students will build skills that will enable success in various year 10 PE electives and VCE PE.
