"I have written before (HERE) about the importance of not just moving more, but developing physical literacy skills with students. This was pre-pandemic. And if anything the limited activity many had during the COVID-19 pandemic increased these challenges leading to what many are seeing as a health crisis.
In the world of education, we rightly emphasize intellectual growth, but the significance of physical health cannot be overstated. We are intentionally trying to do this differently in West Vancouver Schools. We are looking at the whole school environment to get students moving more often throughout the day. For us physical health is not just about sports or fitness; it's a comprehensive approach encompassing mental and emotional well-being, community involvement, and personal development."
"Many of us in Canada have seen the Heritage Minutes film about the invention of basketball by Canadian James Naismith in 1891, back when the game was played using a peach basket.
