For many students, physical education is critical to becoming active and developing healthy routines. But how is this possible anymore with the repercussions of the pandemic?

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.

Balancing Scheduling, Nutrition, and Performance The tradition of early morning practice is deeply ingrained in sports culture, often seen as a symbol of discipline and commitment. It also aids the coaches and families ‘the rest of the day’ to handle other business. However, as our understanding of nutrition, sleep, and athlete health has evolved, it’s worth reconsidering this practice.

“It is not joy that makes us grateful; it is gratitude that makes us joyful.” ― Brother David Steindl-Rast [i] Parenting is fulfilling. But it’s also relentless, scary, and full of disappointments. Days drag. Tasks repeat. Problems never stop. If we’re not careful, months pass without a pleasant thought, and our mental health spirals. Holidays magnify the stress of parenting, and we can wander into a trance-like state pretty quickly.
