Physical Education

While in Children's House PE, each student spends time working on the following qualities: time management, teamwork, and communication, group organization, personal responsibility, sportsmanship, self- improvement and leadership. Our goal in Children’s House PE is to develop a student who is independent and participates well. To accomplish this goal we continuously practice these qualities. Each quality is an important component of each child’s development, which in turn creates the best possible teammate and individual.

Children's House practice a variety of drills and exercises, designed to develop proper form while participating in the following activities: Relays, Kick ball, Tag games, Tee ball, Parachute games, Scoops, Basketball, Six-Ball Soccer, Throwing and Catching games and Cooperative games.


Children’s House is a safe, wholesome, nurturing environment that yields a child who is happy, as well as a child who thinks for himself, understands why he behaves a certain way, has begun to internalize the value of hard work, and takes joy in true learning, setting him on a lifelong path of discovery and continued maturation as a complete big person.
