Heath and Physical Education
At Marshall McLuhan, Health and Physical Education focuses on nurturing the mind, body, and spirit of students through teaching academics and physical activity. The program uses sport and fitness as a vehicle to teach and foster the concepts of fair play, discipline, and goal setting in light of Catholic Gospel values.
Through the activity program, students learn Christian leadership skills as they work effectively as interdependent team members. Intermediate courses (grades 9 and 10) have a team sport focus whereas senior students can select from team or individual activity courses.
The goal of McLuhan's Health and Physical Education program is participation! We strive to make physical activity a positive experience for all students so that leading a balanced lifestyle becomes a lifelong endeavor.
