Vision

A Community of Physically Healthy and Mentally Robust Rulangnites

Philosophy

The Physical Education (PE) programme plays an important role in the physical growth and development of pupils. It provides an avenue for them to express themselves non-verbally and creatively through movement and physical activity.

Physical activity should be the cornerstone of the PE programme. The delivery of PE determines how pupils will feel about making physical activities a part of their lifestyle. The PE programme for pupils should be enjoyable to ensure that they develop a positive association with physical activity.

In addition, PE provides a natural platform and valuable opportunities to inculcate self-management skills, social and cooperative skills and to build character. It serves to complement other subject areas in promoting educational outcomes.

Principles of Teaching and Learning

The PE syllabus focuses on developing pupils’ motor and game skills and equipping them with the knowledge, skills and attitudes to pursue and enjoy a physically active and healthy lifestyle.

Objectives

The objectives of the PE Programmes are to:

  • Understand and apply critical thinking skills to PE

  • Perform and enjoy a variety of physical activities with understanding of key concepts

  • Develop and maintain physical health and fitness through regular participation in physical activities

  • Demonstrate positive self-esteem through body awareness and control

  • Demonstrate the spirit of teamwork, sportsmanship and fair play

Health Education

Principles of Teaching and Learning

We use a thematic approach to plan our Health Education Programmes in Rulang. In Semester 1, we focus on Safety and Physical Health. In Semester 2, we focus on nutrition, mental well-being and emotional health. We believe that health promotion initiatives should be all year round so as to lead our staff, pupils and stakeholders towards healthy living. Our holistic health programmes are customized and integrated into the curriculum to impact the whole school.
