Content: The Rite Journey allows students to reflect on their experiences of the world and on their own beliefs as they attempt to make sense of their rapidly changing and complex global environment, and as they develop their identity as individuals. It is a self-development program that supports students in their journey into adulthood.

This subject explores a broad variety of issues in the areas of consciousness, connection and challenge.

This subject is single gender classes and an inclusive program that respects and celebrates the spiritual and cultural identity of each individual, while still challenging the students to continue to develop their personal worldview. The Rite Journey has a focus on developing Respectful, Responsible and Resilient young people.

Students complete a personal journal of reflection throughout the course, where they will log mentor hours and challenges.
