Health and Physical Education
This week we welcome Mr. Sam Watt as the new Acting Head of Department Health & Physical Education. Mr. Watt joins us from Sarina SHS and comes with a wealth of knowledge and experience.
HPE - Being Prepared for Class on the Oval:
Just a timely reminder that all students are required to wear a hat when HPE lessons are held outdoors, on the oval. Hats are a mandatory requirement of Education Queensland and RVSSC’s sun safety policy; this is a part of the student uniform and all students should have a hat available.
Students are allowed to bring their sport shoes to wear ONLY during HPE lessons. Students will need to change into these shoes at the beginning of the lesson and change into their regular black school shoes at the conclusion.
We encourage all our students to also bring a water bottle to remain hydrated throughout the day and most importantly as we begin to enter the new season and the hotter months.
All Term 3 Assessment:
During HPE in Term 3, all year levels will be assessed for both a theoretical and practical component throughout the term (minus Health). We are conscious that a lot of our students are either practically or theoretically talented, and in some cases, a combination of both. Therefore, in saying this, we are making sure we are providing an opportunity to demonstrate these skills to be successful.
All assessment information will be available by the end of this week on Daymap and is available to all students via their personal Daymap profiles. A reminder that if your student is absent during a timetabled assessment lesson, please follow the extension request that can be found in the student diary.
