YEAR 8
Year 8 Key Information
- SEL SPOTLIGHT: This week, students took a reflective journey through letter-writing to their future selves. They explored their achievements, challenges, and hopes for growth, building vital self-awareness skills. By balancing celebrating success with honest reflection, students strengthened their emotional understanding while setting meaningful personal goals. This activity reinforces that growth is a journey worth documenting!
- To celebrate the end of Year 8, we will enjoy an excursion to Sugar World on Tuesday, Week 9. Parents, please check your email for the permission slip and complete it promptly.
