Study day for English

Brisbane Water Secondary College HSC students have taken part in an English study day at the school.

Students worked in small groups with teachers who had HSC marking experience to learn what examiners would be looking for in the final exam for the compulsory subject.

Topics covered novel, language and film study as well as a critical look at the way students performed in the recent trials.

In a separate activity, HSC students from the Making a Difference program met for a day at the Avoca Beach Surf Life Saving Club to prepare for the exams.

Together with students from Tuggerah Lakes, they were addressed by former principal of Kincumber High School, Mr Gus Plater, and by several university students who were able to share their HSC and university experiences.
