YEAR 8 The curriculum for our Year 8 students includes many special activities and events, offering opportunities for both educational and interpersonal skill development. Year 8 students participate in SIS sport, to celebrate and encourage the sporting endeavours and team spirit among our students.
There is a workshop for all Year 8 students that focuses on the issue of bullying, as part of the Pastoral Program. This workshop is a particularly important and valuable session, as it deals with an issue that is both sensitive and serious. The College has a strong commitment to educating students about the unacceptable nature of bullying behaviour, and students benefit greatly from the workshop, as it highlights the importance of accepting all people as individuals, regardless of their differences.
Year 8 students participate in a Reflection Day, where the central theme is self-esteem. Students undertake various activities relevant to this theme and focus on building and maintaining a positive and strong sense of self.
