Middle School (Year 7-9) "Building healthy habits and character"

The Middle School is designed to meet the changing needs of the teenage student, and strives to ensure learning is relevant, meaningful and enjoyable. This style of learning seeks to prepare Year 7 to 9 students for their all-important senior years of schooling.

Cedar College endeavours to create an environment that not only instructs and challenges adolescents in developing skills and knowledge, but also actively seeks to support and encourage them in life issues and character development.

The key features of this period are:

> Pastoral Guidance
> An Innovative Curriculum
> Communication Skills
> Problem Solving
> Student-Teacher Relationships
> Knowledge of God as Creator
> Community Service
> Support for students with special learning needs

The Middle School is structured to include daily Home-Room time, which enables students and teachers to interact in a personal and caring environment. This pastoral-care time allows teachers to address issues that are important to the lives of young people in a biblical and genuine way.
