Kia Ora Families and Friends of our Year 8 Community.

Wow! Where has the time gone? Another action packed 10 weeks has raced by.

All year 8 staff would like to thank our Year 8 families and community for your support in the running of all our programmes this term. Whether it was assisting with our Kaitiakitanga activities or helping with your child’s learning we appreciate your support in helping us to provide engaging programmes.

Looking forward to next term, our integrated unit of study is called “Legacy.” The class of 2022 will investigate how our Year 8 Graduates can continue and add to the Balmac Legacy.

The major units of work for next term include…

  • Learning a variety of formal dances for our Year 8 Social.

  • Completing the drug programme with the Life Education Bus.

  • Create and perform a Class Lip Sync

  • Contributing towards making a class magazine advising incoming Year 8 of how to get the most out of their last year at Balmacewen.

The year 8 staff wish our school community all the best for the end of the term and hope you enjoy spending quality time with your children during the school break.
