Grade 8 highlights 2016

Throughout grade eight, we enjoyed some spectacular times as a cohort. Last year we  learnt to develop and evolve our independence and sense of Brigidine through a variety of learning experiences and challenges. These experiences assisted us in becoming a coherent whole, allowing us to grow closer and learn the values of expression and friendship as well as identifying our own presence of mind and personality in everything we do. Over the course of the year, we enjoyed many experiences that left us smiling. Some of these include:

Shake & Stir – A theatre group that helped to ease the understanding of Shakespeare, performing a modernized version of A Midsummer Night’s dream. 

Grade eight Retreat – High resolves and the Butterfly effect helped us to understand the importance of self-love and social justice.

Medieval Europe incursion – Where we learnt about how people in 5th – 15th century lived their day to day lives.

These experiences helped us to grow as young women and truly understand the importance of learning, self-love and social justice. We will definitely take these lessons and use them in our future years at Brigidine.
