What does it mean to be a year 8?

You might be thinking, what does it mean to be a year 8 student? This is what I think being a year 8 student is all about.

WHAT MAKES A GOOD ROLE-MODEL?
Being a year 8 starts off with role-modes and you don’t just have to be a role-model for the younger children but for adults too. To be a role-model for me is always doing the right thing and taking charge of my learning.

WHO IS SOMEONE IN YEAR 8 THAT HAS BEEN A GOOD ROLE-MODEL?
Next year I really want to be like some of the year 8’s from this year. I think that Sela, Helen and Tia are really great and they take full responsibility for everything that they do.

WHO WOULD MAKE A GOOD ROLE-MODEL?
I think that people that should be a good leader next year have to show people the right thing and have respect for visitors, teachers, adults and students too. There is a 50/50 chance that I might be a leader for the school.

WHAT IS ONE BIG GOAL THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO ACHIEVE NEXT YEAR?
The goals that I am going to achieve are being a house leader and also helping others around the school.
