The Physical Education program at Lalor East Primary School establishes a foundation for lifelong physical activity participation among students.
From Prep to Year 6, students benefit from a comprehensive one-hour specialist Physical Education lesson and a one-hour lesson focused on fitness and team building development.
The program aims to help students acquire proficiency in movement skills by learning Fundamental Motor Skills, such as running, leaping, dodging, throwing, and catching. These Fundamental skills are developed into sport-specific skills, where concepts such as moving into space and strategic thinking are explored.
Throughout a one-year curriculum, students are introduced to an array of sports and activities, ranging from Athletics to jump rope and traditional to untraditional sports. The program utilizes various teaching styles to engage students, such as SEPEP (Sport education in Physical Education Programs), Peer Teaching, and Teaching Games for Understanding (Game Sense).
