Faith, Justice and Formation

Year 8 Reflection Day

Next Monday and Tuesday, 7 and 8 August, Year 8 will take part in their reflection days for 2023. Reflection days are an important opportunity to step away from the usual pattern of our school day, to spend time with one another, to be present for one another, and to continue to build our relationships and our community, guided by our faith. The theme of the Year 8 Reflection Day is Equality and Diversity. It will attempt to consolidate the previous Reflection Day and camp experiences of the boys in building a strong identity as well as effective community spirit within the respective homeroom groups and the Year 8 cohort, as we tap into the Touchstone of Inclusive Community.

 

Parents/carers who have not already done so, are reminded to review the information about this day in the TASS Parent Lounge and to give consent for your son to take part.
