Hauora (Y10)
Subject Description
Teacher in Charge: Stu Pyne.
In Hauora, students will learn how to improve mental, physical, spiritual and social wellbeing across several units in the year. Students will explore a range of health topics including mental health, sexuality and relationships, as well as factors that influence healthily choices. Classes will examine a physiology unit, learning about the effects of exercise on the human body over time. Students will also explore the concept of Rangatiratanga through creating and leading a sports tournament. There is also a Māori games unit, where students examine tikanga, pūrākau and how history and culture can influence sport and how this can impact spiritual wellbeing. The year will end with a Ki-o-rahi tournament.
