Physical Education

term 1 physical education - welcome back superstars

3/2/2021

WE'RE BACK!!! What an sensational start to the year to reconnect with all of our students, staff and families at MPPS.  I am beyond excited for the year to begin and our Physical Education program to roll out.  This term we will be working on becoming GEMS in and outside of our PE classes.  The acronym GEMS focuses on the values of Gratitude, Empathy and Mindfulness while revisiting our Mernda Park Sportsperson  values of teamwork, attitude, respect and positivity.  We strive to teach our students the value of physical activity and the benefits on our health and well being as individuals and a community.  WELCOME TO TERM 1! 
Stay safe and well, Susie
