Physical Education E and F Primary

What does Physical Education mean? It means "I learn through movement". I learn about my body, I learn to exercise, I learn about sports.
People today, thanks to the advancement of technology and sciences, have secured a high standard of living. We all recognize that the average life expectancy is higher than ever. However, despite the increased limit of human survival and despite the comforts and conveniences that we all enjoy, overconsumption, hyperactivity and stress – a consequence of life in modern megacities – are unfortunately elements of the daily lifestyle. Illnesses due to hyperactivity and stress are constantly increasing. The aim of the health sciences is not only to fight these diseases but also to improve the quality of life through lifelong exercise. Today, therefore, the need is imperative for all people - children and adults - to include exercise in their daily schedule.
With regular exercise and physical activities we strengthen our health, improve our posture, control our weight, strengthen our bones, feel better and enjoy our lives more. Opportunities for exercise and games are everywhere! At school during the Physical Education lesson, but also outside of school. In the playground of our neighborhood, in the yards, in the parks, in the squares, on the beaches.
In the Physical Education class you will be introduced to sports and traditional dances inside
of pleasant exercises and games. You will learn and try a variety of games. You will test and explore your potential. You will learn the basic rules of sports.
