This is a course for students that are passionate about physical education and physical activity. We will start the year with a surf camp or trip at Tawharanui Regional Park where you will have the opportunity to learn to surf and be assessed against the performance standard. Students will examine the theoretical aspects of physical education through learning about biophysical principles, how to analyse their own sports performance and how to improve their own performance. They will also have the opportunity to perform in a range of performance standards that are co-constructed with students’ interests. All of these aspects can also be used to enhance students’ own sports. Students are expected to fully involve themselves in both the practical and theoretical components of the course.
Students can also choose this course alongside 02OED, but it cannot be taken with 02LPE and 02HPS.
