About the HPE Toolkit

Go to Start Here

One place to look at the Health and Physical Education curriculum for Years 1 to 10, sort it into what you will teach, and plan it week by week. Three sections share one Curriculum rail and the years and strand you choose in the top bar.

The sections

• Navigator: the whole curriculum from big ideas to single statements. The Curriculum Map, a Year Level, a Progression along one element, the Matrix, Connections across both strands, and the Ministry's PE Activities.
• Hexagons: every statement as a colour-coded hexagon. Filter the deck, arrange and connect hexagons on a board, and print them as cards to cut out.
• Planner: a year planner on the New Zealand school calendar for each year level you teach, with units, assessments, lessons, a heat map, a course outline, and print, PDF and Word.

Getting around

• Years and Strand in the top bar apply to every section. Choose one year or several.
• The Curriculum rail lists every statement for your years and strand. Open one, put it on the board, or add it to a week of your plan.
• Examples switches the bracketed "(e.g. …)" examples in the statements on or off. They start hidden.
• Codes such as 9K3 are PENZ planning labels from the Curriculum Unpacking Canvases, not Ministry codes. PE is numbered across the PE elements and Health across the Health elements; the three Health practices are P1 Describe, P2 Use evidence to explain, P3 Select, evaluate and justify. The canvases do not cover Health Years 1 to 6 yet, so those codes follow the same rule and are shown with a dashed outline.
• What you add is kept in this browser on this device. Plan files and board files move it between devices.

Colours

Colour in the toolkit always means curriculum. Each topic keeps its PENZ HPE colour at every year level: knowledge is the full colour, practices are the pale fill with a ring. Strands and elements are written in ink beside them, because colours repeat across Health and Physical Education.
