Year 8

"Ma te huruhuru ka rere te manu; Adorn the bird with feathers so it can fly."

Year 8 consists of small class sizes, giving students more one-to-one teacher time and increasing their ability to succeed with their learning. Teachers know their students and cater to individual learning and behavioural needs. All students have the opportunity to participate in eight specialist subjects, including The Arts, Information Literacy, Technology and Te Reo, to experience practical skills and creative learning.

Year 8 Students experience Deep Cove and experience which is in a remote part of Fiordland National Park. They learn about conservation and the region’s variety of flora and fauna.

Our Year 8 students will: feel empowered and excited about their learning set personal learning goals and develop skills to self-manage make links with our community and the wider world, learning about the past and thinking about the future acknowledge and observe the tikanga connected to Te Ao Māori.
