This compulsory subject explores how students can contribute to individual and community health and wellbeing, through an investigation of various factors that create and promote life-long health, and active citizenship. Students engage with content from health, behavioural, social and physical sciences to investigate and understand complex health issues and problems in contemporary society, in particular, road safety and drug and alcohol abuse. Students also complete a range of practical activities to examine topics such as performance enhancement, energy systems, ethical decision-making, tactical awareness and training.
This subject provides a foundation for further studies of Physical Education in Years 11 and 12. The skills developed may also have application to other (Humanities/Science/Arts/Technology) subjects.
Written responses, physical performances and a news story video.
