MTS PD Day 2023

This year the event will be held at two locations- Manitoba Museum (main site) and the Sport for Life Center. The Manitoba Museum will host the Registration, Keynote, Lunch, Marketplace, and some sessions. The Sport for Life Centre will host additional sessions.

PHE Manitoba will be offering an improved virtual option for our friends who are unable to attend the in-person conference. A virtual ticket will guarantee you a spot to see the keynote and some of the most popular sessions! Virtual tickets and in-person tickets are the same price. Virtual sessions will be live streamed but not recorded.

Our lunch options have also been improved! We will be offering a choice of the following Subway sandwiches to our attendees: Canuck Classic, Green Goddess, Turkey Breast, Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki, and Steak and Cheese.

We are excited to announce Dean Kriellaars as our keynote speaker. Dean will be presenting “Quality Physical Education: What’s Curriculum got to do, got to do with it?”.

Connecting Mental Health Literacy and Well-Being to the Physical education / Health Education Curriculum

It is important that Kindergarten to Grade 12 students, as part of their physical education and health education (PE/HE), are able to gain the knowledge and skills they need to support mental health, well-being, and healthy lifestyles. Manitoba Education is pleased to announce the release of Connecting Mental Health Literacy and Well-Being to the Physical Education/Health Education Curriculum. This resource is intended to enhance understanding of the overall integration of mental health throughout the current Manitoba K–12 PE/HE curriculum and increase awareness of resources that are available to support the implementation of mental health curricular learning outcomes.

Along with this resource, Manitoba Education has also created a list of Mental Health and Well-Being 2021/2022 Professional Development Sessions (attached) that are taking place in the upcoming months. These sessions are being offered in English only.
