Havergal's Uncalendar, 2016-2017 Academic Year

PAI3O2/PAI4O2 – Racquet Sports, Grade 11 or 12, Open Semestered 0.5 CREDIT Racquet Sports is a course that allows you to participate in “social” sports. The course covers tennis, badminton, table tennis, squash and pickle ball. A high level of skill in these sports is not required to take the course; it is a way for you to learn how to play, for lifelong enjoyment. Basic concepts (such as serves, forehand and backhand shots) transfer from one sport to the next. So do strategies between the sports. Students will travel to the Cricket Club for squash and compete against each other in friendly competition during the various sports. Additionally, there are classes of health and self- defense. In health, there is a cumulative project of creating a “Teen Survival Kit.” In self-defense, you will learn key points for protecting yourself. 0.5 CREDIT Aquatics is made up of National Lifeguard Service certification. The course is for students seeking lifesaving certifications through the Canadian Lifesaving Society. This course focuses heavily on aquatic fitness and rescuer training, and you can expect to be in the pool for 90% of the course. The course follows the Canadian Lifesaving Society for instructions, expectations and level of fitness required by each student. Lifesaving Society examiners are brought in for final testing, while the teacher evaluates other sections. Prerequisites are needed for this course, which follow the Canadian Lifesaving expectations: you must have Bronze Cross certification prior to taking NLS. 1 CREDIT These courses are the “traditional” Health and Physical Education courses.

The emphasis in this course is on participation, communication, teamwork, effort, learning healthy habits and how important it is to maintain lifelong fitness. 0.5 CREDIT These courses are the “traditional” Health and Physical Education courses.
