Physical Education

At Commonwealth Secondary School, our PE Department is all about inspiring students to become confident, resilient, and passionate about staying active- for life! Our curriculum is designed to Engage, Enthuse, and Equip students with the skills, values, and knowledge they need to thrive both in and beyond school.

Our Approach

We believe in student-centred learning: where every student’s ability, interest and learning style is valued. Through experiential learning and differentiated instruction, we cater to diverse abilities and interests. During the teaching of games, we adopt the Game-Based Learning approach where students learn through play- developing skills, tactics, and strategies in various game scenarios.

Our Syllabus

Games Module: Students explore a wide range of games like Handball, Volleyball, Floorball, and Softball over 4 to 5 years in CWSS. This culminates into the highly anticipated Inter-Class competitions held at the end of the year for our Secondary 1-3 students.

Outdoor Education: Students also learn essential life skills such as campcraft, outdoor cooking, first aid and environmental awareness while learning to care for the community and stay safe outdoors.

Physical, Health and Fitness: From learning the basics on anatomy, nutrition and ultimately planning their own fitness program, students are empowered to progressively take ownership of their physical well-being and fitness.

Beyond the Classroom

The PE programme does not stop at the gym or the field! We offer exciting and meaningful experiences that are designed to build character and lasting memories:

Cross-Country Meet

Annual Games Day

Outdoor Adventure Learning Camp (Sec 2)

Outward-Bound School Camp (Sec 3)

At CWSS, PE is more than physical activity. It is a journey of growth, teamwork and discovery as our department is committed to creating engaging, effective, and enjoyable PE experiences for every student!
