precision and form. This latter emphasis distinguishes the learning in gymnastics
from that in the majority of other physical education activity areas.
Adventure activities at junior cycle provide students with the opportunity to
develop personally, socially, and physically in a safe and challenging environment.
Presenting the student with an element of adventure and challenge in a controlled
environment can lead to the development of qualities such as self-reliance, selfconfidence, responsibility, regard for others and respect for the environment. In
this way, aspects of holistic development that are generally not emphasised in
other areas of physical education can be addressed .

activities selected for the first module should be different from the two activities
selected for the second module. (It is acknowledged that where resources are
limited this may not be achievable. In these circumstances, teachers may choose
activities from the same category.) It is important to select activities appropriate
to each module.
In Module Three, Unit 1, where schools perceive that within existing resources all
possible activities are on offer it may be possible for these students to engage in
Games Making. In Games Making the students are given the opportunity to work
as part of a group to invent, construct and develop a game that they can call their
own.
