Year 8 students continue with their ten subjects and participate in our Captiv8 program which aims to build on what our students have learnt in Year 7, providing them with new opportunities and challenges.

Captiv8 explores areas such as: Citizenship - Where do I fit in?; Attributes of Sensibility and Wellbeing; Positive Relationships; Togetherness - Class Identity and Collaboration; Industrious - Work Ethic and Positive Attitude; and Values.
