Year 8

Year 8

Thank you for your ongoing support in ensuring all of Year 8 are wearing their uniform proudly each day. A reminder that in the summer terms, Term 1 and Term 4, students who wish to wear their jumper to and from school must have their blazer as the external garment. If your daughter requires a uniform pass, I require an email from her parents or carers to offer the reason as to why the pass is required for the day.  

This week Year 8 students enjoyed time with their Big Sisters, furthering their connections with our Year 12 students. It was wonderful to see such fun, tasty and colourful activities organised by Year 12 – many with the theme of celebrating Gal-entines Day together!  

In the coming week, the cohort will attend a session with Dr Prue Salter (Study Skills Specialist). This session held Monday 17 February 2025 will be focused on student organisation, ensuring students are creating healthy study habits and routines as well as providing valuable resources to support their skills moving forward. Our Academic Care program continues to support students in ensuring they are organised for learning, prepared for homework or assessment tasks and can utilise available resources appropriately.
