On Tuesday June 24, 2025, we welcomed more than 50 physical educators, academics, and sport and recreation specialists to campus to discuss ways to make youth experiences with movement more accessible and enjoyable for all. The event included representatives from local, provincial and national organizations, and featured an address by Canadian scholar and former Olympic athlete Bruce Kidd, who spoke about why physical education is needed more than ever. Dr. Kidd’s talk built off his recent book: ‘Educating the Body: why physical education is needed more than ever’.
