Physical Education New Zealand - Te Ao Kori Aotearoa

Transforming communities through quality physical education

Whakataukī – Our Guide

Hopukina te hau, te koiri, te hou –
Whakatipua, Whakatuarā, Whakanuia, Whakamaioha.
Ei, ko te ao kori e.

Grasp the source, the sound, the movement –
Expand it, Champion it, Celebrate it, Value it.
Ei, it is alive.

As our guiding whakataukī refers to, we are committed to actively gathering and leveraging all available resources, passion for physical education, and fresh ideas that drive innovation in our field.

We aim to nurture the growth and potential of physical education in Aotearoa New Zealand, investing in professional development, curriculum enhancements, and advocacy.
