Sport for All and Excellence
The philosophy of our Physical Education Department is that every pupil should be given the opportunity and encouragement to achieve their potential in a wide range of activities – ‘Sport for All and Excellence’. We also believe in educating each student to become a lifelong learner and participator in sport.
Physical activity is necessary to a person’s well-being, this is especially true for children. At JBS, we fully embrace the fundamentals of a healthy lifestyle and believe that physical activity is crucial for our students to develop into healthy and knowledgeable adults. Having the recommended amount of exercise will help fight and protect from many known illnesses like obesity, diabetes, heart disease, asthma and sleep disorders.
We want to cultivate a healthy and active lifestyle for our students, whilst teaching them effective communication and team working skills. At JBS, physical education is fun, exciting, challenging and a great motivator for a positive lifestyle.
