Peter Wade, Stevana, Andre and Melissa.
It was great to have Stevana, Andre and Melissa join our Year 12 2015 cohort today to share their tips on coping with the demands of the HSC.
Thanks for sharing your 'recipes for success' with our Year 12 students.
Melissa is studying at UTS for a Bachelor of Biomedical Science. She advised the students to keep their study space organised, texts and stationary at hand, have a clear desk to work at, and complete practice exams in exam like conditions.
Andre, who is studying a double degree - Bachelor of Science Information Technology/Bachelor of Creative Intelligence Innovation at UTS said students should be methodical about their study practices - keeping organised and not over-thinking. Don't underestimate the power of sleep!
Stevana is studying Bachelor of Law, also at UTS. Stevana said it's really important to try to stay on top of your work, complete all the practice exams you can and take lots of notes.
Melissa Aguirre Acuna.

Did you know the ancient art of fish printing, known as Gyotaku, was developed by the Japanese fishermen 🎣 prior to photography 📷 to prove the size of their catch? Today, Year 9 and 10 Visual Arts students printed Carp, Bream and Tailor 🐟🐠 as an introduction to their printmaking unit. These fish prints will be coloured with water colour in the same traditional method as the early Japanese pioneers 🎨🖌️

At the end of last term, student leaders Rhys, Ashiatu and Sia-Comfort attended the Lifted Leaders Breakfast with Bishop Vincent held at CommBank Stadium together with student leaders from other schools across the Catholic Education Diocese of Parramatta. The forum focussed on two key topics; cyberbullying 💻📱 and consent 👍🛑 Media personality Erin Molan, shared her story of being a victim of cyberbullying on the social media platform Twitter. It raised questions about how we address this issue within a school context. We look forward to bringing the key ideas and important conversations to our school community to help raise awareness and offer support to our student body 🧑🎓👩🎓
