Growth and Development Health Unit

Dear Parents,

I sent home a letter today indicating that our Growth and Development Health unit would be commencing shortly.  Please read the letter.  Expectations are based on the 1998 document.

Students will:


  • identify strategies to deal positively with stress and pressures that result from relationships with family and friends;
  • identify factors (e.g. trust, honesty, caring) that enhance healthy relationships with friends, family, and peers;
  • describe the secondary physical changes at puberty;
  • describe the processes of menstruation and spermatogenesis;
  • describe the increasing importance of personal hygiene following puberty.
