On Friday 20 November, we welcomed Year 6 students who will be coming to Santa Sophia in 2021 for Year 7!
While the move to high school can be nerve-racking, we planned a full day of activities for the Year 6's from several different schools to have a chance to meet new friends, get to know what high school is like, and calm those nerves.
The day consisted of plenty of icebreaker games, team challenges, sports and student led tours of the school. Thank you to our Year 8 and 9 leaders who played a big part in making the day run smoothly.
Welcome to Santa Sophia, Class of 2026!
