PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Scoring runs is the most important thing in cricket hence the art of batsmanship is emphasized in cricket. Only two players on a netball team can score goals but they must be in the shooting circle . These are just 2 of the games covered in the PE Program
All students are expected to participate in PE classes as it is a vital part of the curriculum. Students will be excused from P.E. classes on submission of a written note from a parent or doctorNo variation in the uniform is allowed.. House and school team practices may be held on other days. Uniform requirements for these practices will be specified. It's fun doing PE at Santa Prep
COMPUTER
Children from Kindergarten 2 to Grade 6 will learn to use computers.
The Computer Lab will be used for an Information Technology (IT) course.
Our IT Course is unique in that it is not taught as an isolated subject. An integrated approach is utilized that links to other subject areas, reinforcing concepts taught.
There is no additional fee for computer use but each child in Grade 3-6 is required to buy an exercise book for Computer Studies.
Each session is an exciting, fun-filled, explorative and educationally productive experience that no child wants to miss!!!!
