Physical Education
Students at Heritage College Perth enjoy at least 2 sessions of Physical Education per week from K-12. Each lesson involves skills, fitness and a match or competition.

Students are always encouraged to have fun yet at the same time work hard to achieve their maximum potential by engaging with fitness activities. The sports allow students to develop their sportsmanship, leadership and friendship qualities all whilst maintaining a Christ-like attitude as they learn how to both win and lose.
Heritage College has a huge range of sports which are played throughout the year utilising a wide variety of sporting equipment resulting in a smooth running phys ed program.
