One Nation,

"New" P.E. and REAL Teachers are Part Of The Solution!

The problem is big, -and growing! It’s being called an epidemic! Children and adults are getting fatter and develop serious diseases (such as Type II Diabetes and heart disease) in increasing numbers because they eat too much and don’t get enough exercise. We believe it is possible to change this trend and that a crucial Part Of The Solution is to help children develop the skills, knowledge and desire to be physically active now and for the rest of their lives. This is why quality physical education programs taught by REAL Teachers are a must! More
