The Rite Journey

March 7, 2019

At St Stephen’s Schools, we recognise the importance of each individual student’s personal development. The Rite Journey is a unique educational program designed to support the development of self-aware, responsible, respectful and resilient adults. The year-long program is taught to our Year 9 students where students engage in conversations about who they really are and what type of adult they want to be. The Rite Journey gives students an opportunity to reflect, discuss and develop strategies about their transition to adulthood through conversation, debates, challenges, self-reflection, journal keeping, and service to others.

The Rite Journey has now been a part of St Stephen’s School for seven years, guiding our Year 9s to become self-aware, responsible and resilient young adults.

 

 

SCIENCE TALK

November 29, 2018

There was a flurry of excitement yesterday as Year 8 and 9 Science students proudly displayed research projects they have been working on for much of the year. It was science communication at its best as parents and friends listened intently while the students explained their chosen research subjects and findings, with topics ranging from Plants under Radiation and electro magnetics to wash and wear makeup and looking beyond the brands.
