Physical Education 体育
Physical Education plays a vital role in the overall development and well-being of students, promoting physical fitness, instilling discipline, and fostering teamwork. At Nan Hua High School, the PE department has consistently nurtured a culture of active living and sporting excellence among students and staff.

The team embraced a holistic approach to physical fitness, recognising that it encompasses more than just physical prowess. A comprehensive curriculum that focuses not only on skill development but also on fostering mental resilience, emotional well-being, and social interaction helps students develop a well-rounded understanding of physical fitness as a lifelong pursuit.
By offering a wide array of programmes including team sports, individual sports, and recreational activities, the team aims to ignite a passion for sports among students. From territorial-invasion games to net-barrier games, and striking and fielding games, we ensure that every student can find their niche and explore their talents.
The PE department firmly believes in the importance of instilling values such as sportsmanship, fair play, and respect in students. Activities are deliberately crafted for students to learn valuable life lessons such as accepting defeat graciously, celebrating victories humbly, and supporting teammates through adversity.
Working together as a team
Proactive steps were also taken by the team to engage staff in adopting a healthy lifestyle. Leveraging on the LeAPS sessions carved out for physical activity, a series of initiatives such as introducing different categories of sports through play, organising the School-based Sports for Life Fitness Assessment and carrying out mass physical workout were completed under the Sweat It Out! programme. These efforts fostered a culture of health, promoting not only physical well-being but also camaraderie among staff members.
Annual Road Run
Marking the first mass sporting event at an external venue since recovering from the grip of Covid-19, Nanhuarians gathered at West Coast Park for the anticipated Annual Road Run. This event has become a cherished tradition that brings people together in a shared pursuit of health, challenge, and fun. The event is more than just a race, as runners of various skill levels lace up their running shoes to push their boundaries and achieve personal goals. Beyond the physical aspect, the event promotes a sense of togetherness among students and staff as they also engage in a healthy picnic and a fun sports challenge as a fringe activity.

Healthy Habits Sports Carnival
The Healthy Habit Sports Carnival is a vibrant spectacle that unites students in a celebration of athleticism and teamwork. Bursting with colour and energy, a variety of activities were offered with students showcasing their prowess and dedication. While the lower secondary cohorts engaged in Captain’s Ball and sprint relays, the upper secondary students were involved in a multi-disciplinary sport challenge organised by Sports CCA leaders and recreational games such as Kinball and inline skating. Supporters cheer for their peers with enthusiasm and offer words of encouragement, adding to the electric atmosphere. The camaraderie and healthy competition fostered during the carnival promote not only physical fitness but also a sense of community.
