Students have an opportunity to learn about issues that affect them through Personal Social Health Education in years 7 - 11. The lessons are planned to incorporate active learning techniques accessing the students' visual, auditory and kinaesthetic learning styles. Students are encouraged to discuss openly without fear of judgement and draw up their own list of ground rules in the classroom to support this.
