In Year 8, the curriculum becomes more focused on providing students with a breadth of experience in the different Key Learning Domains. We recognise that students at Year 8 are beginning to gain confidence in the navigation of school life, as well as exploring their own personal identity and worldview, and our Pastoral Program reflects the growing need for emotional literacy and respectful relationships. Students will also foster the skills of Gratitude, Empathy and Mindfulness through The Resilience Project during Pastoral classes.

Students supplement their studies in the core Key Learning Areas with a range of subjects within the Arts, Technology and Health & Physical Education to ensure breadth and depth in their school experience.

The Year 8 curriculum is delivered by a small core of teachers who specialise in teaching at only one year level and as a result combine pastoral care and curriculum in a manner which is best suited to the needs of the student.
