Year 8 Term 2

Exciting times in Year 8 for term 2. This year we will be teaching our Sustainability unit in term 2. This will fit in nicely with a STEAM approach as well as students science fair projects, which we hope will take on a sustainable theme.  Reading and writing will be integrated into theses topics allowing students to investigate the world around them and record their findings in a factual way. We will also be teaching our health unit Standing up for ourselves. So not only will we be looking after ourselves we will also be looking after our environment. This brings a holistic approach to the term and allows teachers to pursue many different ideas lead by the students. 

For P.E. Year 8 students will be swimming from weeks 2 to 5 at Moana pool. Students will be involved in a range of fun activities as well as specialist instruction from Just Swim coaches. 

We will also have specialist coaching in for football, basketball as well as our own Tahuna students. It is exciting to see Tahuna students stepping up to take on leadership roles. 

As you can see this will be a fun packed term with lots happening to engage students helping them to be the best that they can be!

Go Team Tahuna!!
