Abstract
This research investigates the influence of a 12 week holistic fitness
programme on learner attitudes in three multi-grade schools in the Wellington
area of the Western Cape. A sample of 38 (N= 21 males and N=17 females),
grade 4 multi-grade learners participated in the study.
The study also tests whether an evaluation model as applied in this research:
a) Can give insight into how to develop a fitness programme and assist to
refine and improve such a program;
b) Assists, through evaluation and attitudinal evaluation questionnaires to
identify the various components of a fitness programme that can be
modified to optimise the outcomes of the programme.
It was found that the structure provided by the holistic fitness programme
encouraged in significant positive attitudes toward all seven sub-domains of
the CATPA inventory. It is concluded that the participation in a structured
fitness programme is confidently associated with the development of more
positive attitudes.
