Year 9

Year 9 Advisors Corner’s

In this academic year, as usual, every day begins with a morning Advisory check-in, designed to help our students to prepare for the day and week ahead. These meetings are a chance to check-in, share announcements and news, and generally start the day with a light and friendly interaction. It’s also a chance to see who’s awake and who might need a louder alarm clock!

Every week we have Fri-Yay! with students, which is a time designed to facilitate social connections in Advisory classes. During this time, we have had many different activities. We have also taken time to gather information from students about how to manage or reduce their workload. These actions have helped us to build relationships with our students during this difficult time.

Every month, we have a Year-Level Meeting, a chance to get all of the Year 9 students together in one place. We use this meeting to share important information connected with the MYP or wellbeing or extra-curricular opportunities. We share ideas for how year nine students can be as academically successful as possible. The Year Level Meeting has been a great platform for sharing information. In the table below, you can find out more about how the YLM has been an important platform for guiding the students, supporting their wellbeing and keeping them focused on academic developments.
