Year 8 Social Connection on Friday, February 25th, 2022.

This time, the social connection activity was done online by having a fun Kahoot game that students played together as an advisory class. In the Kahoot, students guessed the teacher from the funny photos given. The time has been adjusted to ensure the class has time to discuss their answer to each question. The class that correctly guessed the most teachers would win a prize and the class is 8C. Congratulations to all students in 8C!

Year 8 Term 3 Advisory: Bystander to upstander:

During March, Year 8 advisory classes are still continuing with the theme of Bystander to Upstander. During morning advisory class, students chose one of the scenarios and thought about one of the strategies to help them role-play how to be an upstander in the selected situation. They then rehearsed and performed to the class.

In the next week, students were introduced with the idea that they will now work on a service as an action project designed to promote ‘No Bystanders’ at GJS. As a class, they were brainstorming possible ideas for action, and then brought the ideas to create a ‘No Bystanders’ campaign for GJS. They may work on this project either individually or in small groups
