What do other students think about Physical Education?

I found that doing Stage 2 PE was a great opportunity to work on my fitness and to learn and improve in a variety of different sports such as badminton, basketball and volleyball. Being in this class also helped me to gain knowledge about the theory work, which I found interesting. Overall, my experience with PE has been fun and knowledgeable and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in sports and learning more deeply about this subject.
