The mission of our physical education curriculum is: To empower students to take responsibility for their own lifetime health and wellness.
Elementary Play Ground
Hillcrest School’s physical education program is designed with both physical and cognitive development of the children in mind. It focuses on the development of motor skills, strength, cardio-vascular fitness, aerobic and anaerobic energy systems, and flexibility while the student is involved in activities that develop creative thinking, problem solving and appropriate social behavior. Physical education serves a unique purpose in providing students with knowledge, skills, and fitness that will empower them to develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Physical Education is required in the elementary and middle school grades and up to grade 10 in the high school. Junior and Senior students may take physical education as an elective.
