‘Health and Physical Education’ is a key learning area in the New Zealand Curriculum. This
consultation is about the Health part of that Learning Area,
which includes mental health, sexuality education, food and nutrition, body
care and physical safety.
At least once every two years the Board of Trustees is required to consult with
the parent community about the school's delivery of the Health Curriculum.
The purpose of this consultation is to:
●Inform the school community about the
content of the health curriculum (as opposed to the physical
education part)
●Ascertain the wishes of the school
community regarding the way in which the health curriculum should be
implemented.
●Determine, in broad terms, the health
education needs of the students at the school
