Celebrate HPE Day with us!

Celebrate HPE Day with us!

Held this year on 6 September, Health & Physical Education (HPE) Day is a nationwide initiative highlighting the importance of HPE in the Australian Curriculum, and its influence on the lifelong learning and development of healthy behaviours in our children.

Schools and teachers play an ongoing and critical role in teaching Australian children the benefits of leading an active and healthy lifestyle. Along with parents, the community and government, we can help increase daily physical activity by ensuring quality HPE is being delivered into our primary and secondary schools, and encouraging lifelong habits outside of school.

Teachers and Principals from schools across Australia are encouraged to get involved by holding activities or events during the week or on the day itself to demonstrate how much they value this important part of the curriculum.
