Year 12 Early Entry Applications

We had a busy day last week assisting students with university early entry applications. It is great to see so many students applying for early entry and additional sessions will be held this term to continue to support students with this process.

Year 12 students, be sure to follow the Class of 2024 Career Info page on Schoolbox to stay updated with important information including early entry closing dates, scholarship opportunities and more!


Year 11 and 12 HSC Pathways To Success

Yesterday we had InspirationED and Macquarie University visit to discuss preliminary HSC and HSC exam preparation from a senior HSC marker perspective. This was a great session for students to learn how to improve their exam technique and response to questions to receive higher marks.

As part of the presentations with InspirationED & Macquarie University, we have access to premium resources for year 11 students in the following subjects: English (Standard & Advanced), Mathematics (Standard 2 & Advanced), Biology & Business Studies.

They include practice questions and other resources to help you prepare for your exams at the end of the term.
