Physical Education & Health
This new MFNERC program supports physical education and health programming in First Nations schools through promoting innovative strategies and creative programming for physical education and health teachers to enhance the provincial curriculum.
The program promotes new initiatives to First Nations schools, provides ongoing support to physical education/health teachers at the community level to build capacity, provides support via technology where possible through video conferencing, Skype, WebEx, phone, email, etc. (please note: video conferencing capability will depend on internet connectivity in communities.)
The program promotes networking, information sharing and other professional development (mini-sessions) to enhance physical education/health programming. It also provides professional development (PD) opportunities for First Nations school staff to upgrade skills on an annual basis.
