Mr. Shane O'Connor:

PE classes are a vital aspect of school life because they reinforce the idea of a school community. Often, we do not see everybody in our school year because of subject choice and so on. We are all in different places at the one time. PE is an opportunity for students to come together and do something. It adds to the fabric of the school community. The negligence regarding PE in some schools was very concerning because they are not providing students with the same opportunity to mix.
