Are we taking the fun out of PE and sport for Australian kids?
This week on The PDHPE and CAFS Podcast, I'm joined by Olympic gold medallist Libby Trickett and Georgie Trickett, an everyday athlete and passionate advocate for inclusive sport. Together, they're the team behind Sportish and ambassadors for the Australian Sports Commission's Play Well Strategy.
We're asking some big questions about the future of PE and sport in Australia. Have we become so focused on winning and performance that we've forgotten the importance of fun, inclusion and participation?
We unpack why young people are dropping out of sport, the importance of fundamental movement skills and physical literacy and why physical education deserves greater priority in Australian schools.
Whether you're a teacher, parent, coach, school leader or politician, this is a conversation you need to hear.
Hit play, challenge your thinking and share this episode with someone who can help make a difference. It's time to put fun, participation and movement back at the centre of PE and sport!
