The fundamental aim of the Physical Education program at BEPS is to instill a love of movement and exercise and to create lifelong particiaption in physical activity. Our program is underpinned by two key areas of the Victorian Curriculum:
- The acquisition of movement skills, concepts and strategies to enable students to confidently, competently and creatively participate in a range of physical activities.
- The idea that movement is a powerful medium for learning through which students can acquire and refine personal, behavioural, social and cognitive skills.
