Sports: Body and Mind

Sports: Body and Mind is a Grade 9 elective class focusing on the four pillars of wellness (movement, recovery, nutrition and mindset) through the lens of young athletes. The course is rooted in the foundations of experiential learning with an emphasis on post-experience reflection. Since November, students have experienced the different pillars of wellness through this type of learning. A local personal trainer introduced students to the fundamental concepts of strength training, followed by an on-site visit to Action Sport Physio. They learned about the profession and ran on a zero-gravity treadmill, among other things. Current parent, Dr. Bank, a pediatric emergency doctor, visited the class and tested the students suturing and casting skills.
