2. Why do we teach children
PDHPE within our schools?
Because we all need to be healthy. Health is a
state of complete physical, mental and social
well being and not merely the absence of
disease or infirmity (World health organisation,
1948)
3. Eating healthy is one of the main aspects of staying
healthy. If we have a balanced diet we are able to have
enough energy to get us through the day.
4. Learning PDHPE gives children the
knowledge they need to keep a safe,
active and healthy lifestyle.
5. All of our
personal health
choices influence
how we live.
Understanding
about health is
utilised when
children are able
to confidently
make the right
decisions for
them selves.
