KAIAPOI HIGH SCHOOL INTERVIEWS - Year 8 Students

Each Year 8 family was sent an email, to book an interview time with Kaiapoi High School early next term. Please ensure you have done this as we still have gaps and we need to send it to Kaiapoi High. This will be closed off on WEDNESDAY - if you are not on the list, we will give you a time, and let you know what that is. 

SEXUALITY EDUCATION - 

Our Sexuality lessons have begun, with lots of discussions and introductory activities in both Year 7 and 8. 

Last week our focus was on - 

* Setting the Scene and discussing what Sexuality is. 

* Setting up our group expectations for participation. 

This week we will look at - 

* Our changing bodies and how this effects our feelings and emotions.
