Level 2 Sport & Recreation

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr P. McAllister.

This course offers students the opportunity to experience and participate in a wide range of physical activities in a variety of contexts. This course will be practical based with the main focus of the course being to equip students with the necessary skills to maintain and develop their personal wellbeing, both now and in the future, as well as prepare them for future academic and job opportunities.  Students will participate in a performance standard where they will learn and perform the practical skills of a chosen sport, along with demonstrating a social responsibility focus.  There will be an opportunity for students to participate in umpiring or refereeing at a beginner level and also to plan and run and physical activity event.

The course is an alternative option to the Level 2 Physical Education & Sports Science course, and will have a greater practical element.

Costs

The Board of Trustees has again asked to opt into the Ministry of Education donation scheme. Doing so resulted in the ability to waive student fee donations. Kaiapoi High School aims to deliver quality educational courses over and above those that which is funded by the Ministry. It is likely the School will opt into the donation scheme for 2024, however parental contribution for the costs of trips and activities where participation is optional, and/or components not covered by the Government grant, may be requested. We appreciate the financial support our families make to the School.
