PDHPE provides students with opportunities to explore issues that are likely to impact on the health, safety and wellbeing of themselves and others – now and in the future. Students also participate in challenging and enjoyable physical activity, improving their capacity to move with skill and confidence.
Health and Physical Activity is paramount to a lifetime of wellbeing free of disease or illness. The content in our courses builds students skills to develop physically, socially and emotionally while learning about topics such as relationships, consent and sexual health, drug and alcohol issues, road safety, mental health and wellbeing as well as contemporary community issues that support an individual’s growth and development.
In our junior electives, sports coaching and SLR, the focus is primarily on developing skills in activity through practical application. With these classes there is the potential for students to achieve coaching and refereeing credentials, while reaching their full sporting capacity.
Our senior electives are celebrated with ongoing HSC excellence. Students who have engaged in PDHPE and CAFS have been successful in gaining entry to university to study medicine, physiotherapy and health sciences, while careers have been established in health care, community services and in the sport and recreation industry on completion of Y12.

We would like to acknowledge the Wonnarua people who are the traditional custodians of this land. We would also like to pay respect to Elders both past and present of the Wonnarua nation and extend that respect to all other Aboriginal people.
