Physical activity in Queensland (QLD) State schools is traditionally territorialized in the Key Learning Area (KLA) of Health and Physical Education (HPE) and school sport. The introduction of <em>Smart Moves</em> in QLD State schools is recognised as an ecological approach to obesity prevention that aspires to increase students’ physical activity levels. This study examines the ways in which <em>Smart Moves</em> aims to de-territorialize health promotion and regular physical activity from its traditional settings and distributes it across broadened aspects of the curriculum in QLD State schools. Deleuzo-Guattarian post-disciplinary social theory provides a methodological lens for this document-based project. <em>Smart Moves</em> policy and implementation guidelines are analysed as essential components of the <em>Smart Moves</em> assemblage to illuminate its affective potential to increase the quality and quantity of physical activity in curriculum time. It is argued that <em>Smart Moves</em> opens avenues for physical activity to be deterritorialized from existing forms in HPE and school sport. However, lax school and teacher accountability controls do not ensure holistic implementation of <em>Smart Moves</em>. Thus, it is inferred that the lack of stringent implementation and accountability controls may limit <em>Smart Moves</em> affective capacity to connect with the school administrators, teachers, and ultimately students who stand to benefit significantly from the initiative.<strong> </strong></p> ER -
