Health
and Fitness (Physical Education) at Waimea Country
School
Our program is designed to increase students’ awareness of their own physical fitness, allows them to test the limits of their physical capabilities, and introduces a variety of exercise and dietary routines to promote a lifetime of health and well-being.
Over the course of the school year, students participate in a physical educational program designed to provide the basis for a wide range of learning experiences. With an emphasis on “healthy choices”, units are characterized by loco motor skills, body awareness, endurance, and cooperation. Every class focuses on stretching routines, practice, rules of the game, and healthy competition. Students are expected to come to class prepared with appropriate footwear, clothing, and attitude. P.E. is taught twice a week; Levels 1 & 2 for 30 minutes, and Levels 3 & 4 for 45 minutes.
