Year 7–8 Program

Foundations for Self-Leadership, Connection and Emotional Awareness

Early adolescence is a time of transition, socially, emotionally, neurologically.
Students are forming new identities, navigating changing friendships, and often responding to the world with confusion, reactivity, or withdrawal.

The Knowing Self program helps them pause, reflect, and lead from within.

We guide students to:

• Understand why they react the way they do

• Make sense of their emotions and choices

• Take ownership of their actions without shame

• Learn how to repair, reflect, and reconnect

• See others through a deeper, more compassionate lens

These aren’t just feel-good conversations, they’re life-changing insights that shape how students treat themselves and those around them.
