Step into the shoes of a PE Teacher
Ever wondered what it’s really like to teach Physical Education? In this interactive session, you’ll experience first-hand how we bring learning to life through Game Sense – a dynamic, student-centred approach where teaching happens through the game itself.
You’ll explore different game categories, discover how to adapt activities to develop tactical understanding and skills, and see how purposeful questioning can guide students’ thinking and decision-making. This is not just about playing games – it’s about teaching through them. You’ll leave with a taste of what it’s like to plan, teach, and reflect like a PE teacher, and an insight into the pedagogy that shapes high-quality physical education.
Bring your energy… and maybe your competitive spirit!
Discover Your Creative Voice in Dance Composition
Step into the studio and unleash your creativity! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll:
- Dive into task-based improvisation to generate fresh, original movement ideas.
- Shape and refine your material into a dynamic short phrase using the elements of dance.
- Collaborate with fellow dancers to craft and perform a unique short composition.
Whether you’re an experienced mover or curious about creating choreography for the first time, this session will inspire you to experiment, connect, and bring your ideas to life on the dance floor.
