Physical Education
March 7, 2025
In February, our students actively participated in a variety of movement skills, focusing on throwing, catching, bouncing and striking. Intermediate students applied these skills to basketball and floor hockey, while primary students engaged in low organized and co-operative games.
In March, students will continue to refine their movement skills and participate in activities that promote personal fitness and enjoyment. As an extension of the Physical Education program, they will also have the opportunity to take part in various intramural and club activities, including soccer, basketball, and dodgeball. These extra curricular activities will reinforce the skills and concepts learned in Physical Education while fostering important values such as teamwork, self-discipline, respect for others, and fair play.
Intramural and Club Activities: In March, students are participating in Inner City Soccer League, Inner-City Basketball League, Football Club, Dodgeball intramural and Before School Open Gym.

Mulvey School Physical Education Program Overview
2024 – 2025 School Year
Introduction
Acquisition of movement skills is a key factor for students choosing to lead physically active and healthy lifestyles. Students are less likely to participate in physical activities and recreational sport if they have not learned the skills or experienced success in applying them. The fundamental movement skills that we teach our students in our program are the foundation or building blocks of an active lifestyle during adolescence.
Physical Education Learning Outcomes Explanation
Mulvey School Physical Education Program is based on the Manitoba Curriculum Framework of outcomes for Active Healthy Lifestyles.
The aim of the program is to provide students with planned and balanced programming to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes for physically active and healthy lifestyles. The vision is physically active and healthy lifestyles for all students.
