Physical Activity and Sports Studies is a 200 hour elective offered in Years 9 & 10. It is for anyone with an interest in sport and community health or a great step for those wanting to study PDHPE in Years 11 or 12.

The areas of study change from year to year based on the student's interests and what's happening in the community. Some of the areas of study include;

  • Anatomy and Physiology (bones, muscles, joints, energy systems)
  • Technology in sport
  • Drugs in sport
  • Sports medicine
  • Event organisation
  • Sports coaching
  • Sport for specific groups eg; disabilities, the aged

There is also a practical component where students are expected to participate in all activities. Their sports uniform is required with the same rules as applied to PDHPE.
