English

Grade 8 students will immerse themselves in carefully selected novels designed to inspire, uplift, and build character. Each term focuses on one novel, allowing students to explore its plot, themes, and characters. Comprehension activities and creative projects—like posters, character-themed T-shirts, and theme songs—encourage practical engagement, fostering a deeper connection with the stories.

Mathematics

Euka’s Grade 8 maths program offers an engaging, hands-on approach to foundational principles, tailored for Tasmanian students. With Mathspace, a dynamic online tool, learners can work at their own pace—whether revising or extending their skills. Maths becomes an exciting gateway to understanding the world through practical and relevant applications.

Science

The science curriculum encourages curiosity and critical thinking through experiments and individual research projects. Students explore biology, chemistry, earth sciences, and physics, diving into topics like cells, energy transfer, and chemical compounds. With hands-on experimentation and real-world applications, Grade 8 science is both interactive and inspiring.
