Our comprehensive Health & Physical Education (PE) program is one of the core curriculum subjects at AIS. The aims of the program include the following:

  • teaching physical and interpersonal skills
  • encouraging students to lead healthy lifestyles
  • creating a positive attitude towards physical activity
  • exposing students to a diverse range of sports

In the Primary School, the Health program teaches basic health concepts, body awareness, fine and gross motor skills, safety and the importance of physical activity. The PE program provides opportunities for group participation, co-operation and leadership.

In Secondary School, students learn to take responsibility for their physical and emotional well-being, including developing the necessary skills and strategies to participate in a range of sports. They are provided with ample opportunities to have fun, organise, and investigate life-long physical pursuits.

The diverse range of sports at AIS includes swimming, athletics, badminton, baseball, basketball, cricket, billiards, football, hockey, netball, soccer, softball, table tennis, tennis and volleyball.

House Sport

All AIS students are allocated a House on enrolment and participate in Inter-house activities, where they can compete against their peers in an enjoyable and friendly environment.

The PE program is structured to account for varying student ability, with Physical Education staff present to assist students to learn new skills, gain confidence, and enjoy participating in physical activities.
