Women’s elite sporting uniforms have long tried to balance ideas of “femininity” with athleticism – not always with success. But now women are increasingly taking control of their uniforms.
Health and physical education includes subjects such as sport science, health studies, athlete development, food and nutrition, outdoor and environmental studies, and sport and recreation.
Contrary to some claims, He Puapua is not a ‘plan’ and it doesn’t advocate for ‘separatism’. Rather, it invites us to imagine more inclusive political and constitutional arrangements.

NAPLAN’s arrival promised inequities decreased partly from parent involvement in their child’s progress. But working class parents don’t see NAPLAN as a tool for them, and hardly find it valuable.
Left-wing terrorism had its heyday in the 1960s-80s, and though some threats remain today, groups like Antifa are known more for low-level violence, not significant terrorist actions.
Three recent studies shed new light, as understanding how the behaviour of Australia’s wildlife changes at night can help scientists better protect them.
