For STAGE 3 UNIT 2 NSW Aligned 2025 PDHPE Complete Unit-safety, decision making,

August 26, 2026

This unit has made planning and teaching PDHPE so much easier! I love how clearly the lessons are sequenced, with the learning building naturally from one lesson to the next. Having both PDH and PE lessons included makes it incredibly convenient and takes so much of the guesswork out of planning. The topics are highly relevant and practical, particularly emergency planning, fire safety, decision-making, wellbeing, resilience and responding to feedback. The PE lessons provide great opportunities for students to stay active while developing their movement skills, fitness and enjoyment of physical activity. I also really appreciate the optional consolidation lessons, which provide flexibility to revisit and reinforce key concepts. A comprehensive, practical and well-organised resource that is a huge time saver!

Reply from Oceanview Resources

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review — I truly appreciate it!

This was such a fun way to practice percentages! My students loved the monster theme and were excited to solve each problem to help lock the monsters away. It turned what could have been a routine math practice activity into an engaging challenge. The game was easy to use, kept students motivated, and provided great practice with finding percentages of numbers. A fantastic resource for making math review more interactive and enjoyable!

Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback! I’m thrilled to hear that your students enjoyed the monster theme and were excited to work through the percentage problems. I love creating activities that turn skills practice into something students genuinely want to participate in, so it’s lovely to know that the game kept them engaged and motivated while reinforcing their understanding of percentages. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your wonderful support!

Teaching across a wide range of year levels, including multigrade classrooms, has taught me the importance of adapting lessons so every student can participate, feel supported and make progress. That experience guides the way I plan lessons and create resources. My experience includes: - Teaching multigrade K–2 and Years 3–6 classes - Working as a Reading Recovery, RFF and Learning Support teacher - Creating courses for the ClassCover Relief Teaching Association - Writing units of work for Inquisitive - Working as a unit writer and Learning Support teacher for NSW Distance Education These roles have given me a practical understanding of what students need to learn—and what teachers need to help them succeed.
