Abstract

South Kalimantan's golden age development cannot be divorced from education development. The golden generation can reach the golden age. They are categorized as young generations with healthy physical and spiritual human resources, a cautious disposition, and a strong personality. To reach this golden age, the effort must continually be made to develop a healthy existence for the golden generation, especially for primary school kids (SD). This library-based study aimed to determine the influence of elementary school physical education supervisors in establishing a healthy culture in South Kalimantan. From the study results and the data of the central government agencies and south Kalimantan, it can be concluded that the physical education supervisor has an important role in (1) supervising, controlling, and assisting in the design and implementation of an interesting physical education learning program, to motivate students to engage in routine physical activity; and (2) supervising, controlling, and assisting in the design and implementation of a healthy school program to keep students in good health. It indicates that they can directly oversee, supervise, and assist the learning process in a school that promotes a healthy lifestyle culture. It is desired that this study's findings will be considered by all elementary school physical education supervisors in South Kalimantan while promoting a culture of healthy living among elementary school students.
