GLOO STUDY SKILLS WORKSHOP FOR STAGE 6
Our Stage 6 students (Years 11 and 12) will have the opportunity to undertake an exciting new study skills program in Week 5 of Term 2 aptly named GLOO. The program is a fun fast-paced 1 Day Study Skills Course that will give students simple, practical techniques to overcome procrastination and approach their studies in a more organised and efficient way, helping them to achieve better grades in assignments, tests and exams. The program is focused on three key areas - Memory Skills, Speed Reading and Effective Note-taking techniques. Students will discover how to learn new information quickly and easily using simple yet powerful study techniques many other students are never ever shown.
Year 11 will engage in the program all day on Thursday 29 May 2025
Year 12 will engage in the program all day on Friday 30 May 2025
Break times will vary from regular lunch and recess breaks therefore students are encouraged to bring food with them on the day. They will also need to bring their English text (or similar) to use in the reading exercises and a pen.
The skills that our Stage 6 students will take away from the day will no doubt be advantageous for their success throughout the Preliminary and HSC years.
