Junior Secondary School (Year 7-8) is the time where students are experiencing individual subjects, taught by specialist teachers, for the first time.
Easy transition from primary school to this next level of learning is central; subjects are learned in the familiar environment of students' homegroups, with subjects such as Visual Art, Science and Music taught in specialist classrooms.
Year 8 is also the first year students are able to begin choosing elective subjects.
