Reflections On Our First Day with P.D.H.P.E.

We are learning about Personal Development, Health and Physical Education.
The statistics on child health have been quite a revelation to me. Reinforcing how important this subject is for the health of the students, particularly today. Pre-television and computers, movement was part of a child's life through play.

I read in the paper the other day that this generation, will probably be the first not to live as long as their parents - due to health problems arising from unhealthy foods and sedentry life styles.
I need to ignite enthusiasm in myself for this course because of the overfacing nature of the syllabus language with its endless stream of acronyms - so hard to remember.


In holistic education; Personal Development, Health and Physical Education should be woven through the curriculum.



All learning originates in movement.
