Abstract	Health and Physical Education (HPE) in Aotearoa, New Zealand makes a significant contribution to the wellbeing of students, school and local communities, and the environment. Despite this contribution, there is little research about teaching and learning in HPE in primary school settings, particularly in relation to the diverse needs and interests of contemporary students. This project aimed to create understandings of teaching and learning processes in HPE that support success for diverse learners in the 21st century. This project, which is presented in this report, draws on the shared expertise of teachers and researchers to reimagine HPE in ways that support teachers and children to have meaningful experiences, relevant to their diverse backgrounds, needs and interests. In doing so, this project offers a rare glimpse of curricular ideals enacted in practice. The following two research questions drove the project: (1) What are the characteristics of HPE teaching and learning in primary schools and classrooms?; and (2) How do teachers take up, adapt and deploy innovative approaches in HPE, and with what effects on student learning? The research took place with four variously experienced teachers drawn from two ethnically diverse schools, one in Hamilton and one in Tauranga. The classes spanned Year 3 to Year 6. The 2-year duration of the project afforded opportunities for ongoing dialogue and developing respectful relationships among the research team, as well as the chance for the university partners to spend significant periods with teachers and children in their classes.
