PHYSICAL EDUCATION

 

The International American School utilizes the state-of-the-art SGGW sport facilities for all PE classes, located just a 5-minute drive from the school. Physical education is offered to students from KG to 10th grade, with PreKG students participating in PE at Small School. PE classes last for approximately one hour and are taught by two teachers, one for boys and one for girls, starting from 4th grade.

 

The facility is equipped with everything needed to play various team sports, such as football, tennis, basketball, volleyball, indoor hockey, and handball. The gym also includes gymnastics mattresses, a jumping box, and a pommel horse to improve students’ agility, flexibility, and skills.

 

In Small School, students have fun participating in various games, relays, races, and mini games to make sports enjoyable before diving into more technical exercises. The aim is to instill a love for physical activity and a healthy lifestyle in every student.

 

SWIMMING

 

The International American School makes use of the SGGW swimming pool and Aqua Relaks center (USCIR pool) for swimming lessons. These lessons are available to students from PreKG to 6th grade and last for approximately one hour.

 

Students of all skill levels, from non-swimmers to high-level swimmers, are taught by two teachers to ensure optimal skill and technique development. There are also several lifeguards on duty at all times for safety.

 

Swimming lessons cover a range of skills, from floating exercises, backstroke, crawl, and breaststroke to butterfly for advanced swimmers. Students also learn how to jump, flip, and dive, and various underwater skills using different sinking toys.

 

To improve their technique, beginner and advanced swimmers use different aids, such as boards, pipes, and flippers, during lessons.
