Trying to be the best there is at what I do, to have the greatest impact I could have and to leave an unrivaled legacy.

Phys Ed with a difference:
Agility, Balance, Co-ordination, Jumps, Speed and Hobby Horses make the perfect combination for Show Jumping in Phys Ed. Progressing from nothing, to a stick to a Hobby Horse the girls could practice skills in a fun way! @WGJS1#HobbyHorsePE
Either we add genuinely passion to our current work, add passionate activities in between our current work, or find other works that we are passionate about.

@Mamkwrestling@physedreview STEAM / STREAM units in Phys Ed are so open ended there is so much you can do. We just did a 1 hour event with all our classes over 2 weeks and it was a massive hit with kids and teachers alike. We included each element of STREAM into the challenge.
So proud of my colleague and friend @_TATTTY_ for holding the fort while I'm off work. She's stepped up, shown up and made her presence felt in an almighty way. So proud of how far you've come and so excited that this is just the start! @WGJS1 is lucky to have you. #DreamTeam
Day 2 of our Cross-curricular STREAM week in our Physical Education classes! Introducing our girls to science, technology, engineering, art, robotics and maths while having fun and being active. Colloboration, Critical thinking and 21st Century Skills in full force.
This applies to all facets. I think often we get criticized for constantly striving for more or looking to improve something that works, but why should we settle when greatness is just a little bit of effort away...
Teacher's are overwhelmed and need assistance in management of such high numbers of learners. We urge the @DBE_SA to ask schools to introduce physical exercise classes for those who are not attending classes. Adding PE classes to the current rotation system will alleviate stress.
@FundamentalDev1@DBE_SA It's an amazing opportunity to expand and include Cross-Curricular learning. Either as an end to a class unit, to extend the class unit or even to introduce a class unit! Physical Education needs to be given more focus and must be prioritized in schools! @WGJS1 has achieved this!
@FundamentalDev1@DBE_SA 100% - not only do learners learn better when they have been doing physical activity, but for many learners it is a preferred learning style. Kids were designed to move. And exercise is an outlet for emotions, endorphins and needed for general health. The @DBE_SA must listen!
Beautiful examples of problem solving skills and the power of persistence during our Grade 1 STREAM Week Phys Ed lessons today. Creating a 'machine' to move a ball while learning new terms "kinetic and potential energy". We ♡ Co-curricular Phys Ed! @WGJS1@_TATTTY_
