Welcome to Sentinel high school.

High school physical education should be a fun learning experience. According to the Ministry of Education, the physical education program should provide for:

1. Affective development as it refers to adjusting both to self and others. It is concerned with developing an appreciation and enjoyment of an activity for its own sake and recognizing the individual self worth of each participant.

2. Cognitive development as it involves knowledge, perception, memory, imagination, creative ability, thinking, and reasoning related to performing physical activties.

3. Psychomotor development as it concerned with motor proficiency and physiological functioning in the performance of physical activities.
