Physical Education Department
This department focuses on the complete health and well-being of students at Bill Hogarth SS, valuing both physical and mental wellness.  A great deal of research has shown the positive link between physical activity, emotional well-being, and academic success. Participation in regular exercise significantly increases concentration, builds self-confidence, improves mood, and promotes strong character.  It is our goal to foster an understanding of the importance of physical activity and how it contributes to physical, social, emotional, and intellectual well-being.  It is also our aim to create an environment in which every student feels safe and engaged, regardless of their ability and experience level.  The Phys. Ed. space features a state-of-the-art, four-section gymnasium, a dance studio, a fully-equipped fitness room, and a 400-metre track around a large-sized playing field.  All of these are used within HPE courses as students take part in a variety of cooperative games, sports, fitness-related activities and clubs.  Although our school is only in its first year our Athletic Program already features Tennis, Cross-Country, Cricket, Soccer, Volleyball, Basketball and Curling teams, with Badminton, Table Tennis, Girl's Flag Football, Baseball, Slo-pitch, and Track and Field teams upcoming this year.  We also hope to add Swim and Hockey teams for next school year.​​​​
