By trial and error I figured out a clunky method of repartitioning the 
matrices for this group:

s1a = Flatten[Table[{Flatten[Table[s1[[
      n, m]][[1, i]], {n,
           1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]], Flatten[Table[s1[[n, m]][[2,
            i]], {n, 1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]]}, {m, 1, 3}], 1]
s2a = Flatten[Table[{
          Flatten[Table[s2[[n, m]][[1, i]], {n, 1, 3}, {i, 1,
            2}]], Flatten[Table[s2[[n, m]][[2, i]], {n, 1,
      3}, {i, 1, 2}]]}, {m, 1, 3}], 1]
s3a = Flatten[Table[{Flatten[Table[s3[[
      n, m]][[1, i]], {n,
           1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]], Flatten[Table[s3[[n, m]][[2,
            i]], {n, 1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]]}, {m, 1, 3}], 1]
s4a = Flatten[Table[{
          Flatten[Table[s4[[n, m]][[1, i]], {n, 1, 3}, {i, 1,
            2}]], Flatten[Table[s4[[n, m]][[2, i]], {n, 1,
      3}, {i, 1, 2}]]}, {m, 1, 3}], 1]
s5a = Flatten[Table[{Flatten[Table[s5[[
      n, m]][[1, i]], {n,
           1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]], Flatten[Table[s5[[n, m]][[2,
            i]], {n, 1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]]}, {m, 1, 3}], 1]
s6a = Flatten[Table[{
          Flatten[Table[s6[[n, m]][[1, i]], {n, 1, 3}, {i, 1,
            2}]], Flatten[Table[s6[[n, m]][[2, i]], {n, 1,
      3}, {i, 1, 2}]]}, {m, 1, 3}], 1]
s7a = Flatten[Table[{Flatten[Table[s7[[
      n, m]][[1, i]], {n,
           1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]], Flatten[Table[s7[[n, m]][[2, i]], {n, 1,
            3}, {i, 1, 2}]]}, {m, 1, 3}], 1]
s8a = Flatten[Table[{Flatten[Table[s8[[n, m]][[1, i]], {n,
  1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]], Flatten[
      Table[s8[[n, m]][[2, i]], {n, 1, 3}, {i, 1, 2}]]}, {m, 1, 3}], 1]

These appear to work...
I had to reread the matrices in the right order and Flatten at the right 
places!
