This unit teaches students about personal strengths, respectful relationships and essential safety skills, including those shared through Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander stories. Students learn to improve health through hygiene practices and strengthen self-management and interpersonal skills by managing emotions, making decisions, seeking help, and responding respectfully in different situations. In PE, they develop and refine fundamental movement skills such as balancing, running, sprinting, and catching, while participating in games that build spatial awareness, encourage fairness, and promote safe use of equipment.

The PDHPE K–6 units are designed as a 16-lesson sequence, comprising of 8 PDH lessons and 8 PE lessons, with 4 optional consolidation lessons. The lessons are written in sequence to show the flow of learning and the building of concepts across lessons. To implement the syllabus and meet teaching requirements, teachers are expected to teach one PDH and one PE lesson each week.

Duration: 8 weeks + 2 weeks optional consolidation
