Health and PE
In physical education and health, the focus is on the well-being of the students themselves, of other people, and of society through learning in movement and health-related contexts.
Four underlying and interdependent concepts are at the heart of this learning area:
- Hauora a māori philosophy of well-being that includes the dimensions taha wairua, taha hinengaro, taha tinana, and taha whānau, each one influencing and supporting the others.
- Attitudes and values a positive, responsible attitude on the part of students to their own well-being; respect, care, and concern for other people and the environment; and a sense of social justice.
- The socio-ecological perspective a way of viewing and understanding the interrelationships that exist between the individual, others, and society.
- Health promotion a process that helps to develop and maintain supportive physical and emotional environments and that involves students in personal and collective action.
