Marlborough Boys’ College
Year 9 Physical Education
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mr B. O'Sullivan.
The emphasis is on developing large motor movement skills centered on activities that also promote fitness and exercise as fun. Consequently, the major games or sports codes have been de-emphasised to accommodate individual skill learning through a wide range of topics and activities.
Practical topics taught through the year also have an emphasis on personal and social responsibility. How to work successfully with other people in a team setting and how to support and encourage others.
Some theory will be used to reinforce practical work and introduce the students to concepts related to fitness and healthy developments. Students also undergo an extensive personal testing programme, with results recorded.
Health Education will see students cover such topics as Hauora, nutrition and positive relationships.
