YEAR 6 GET A TASTE OF UNIVERSITY

On Friday 1 November Year 6 students together with a family member travelled by bus to Newcastle to participate in a visit in conjunction with a program called "Aim High".  Aim High is a program which strives to increase the understanding of, and aspiration for, higher education among low socio-economic status schools. More can be learnt about this wonderful program by visiting: http://www.newcastle.edu.au/community-and-alumni/community-engagement/community-and-school-programs/aim-high

During the day the participants had brief visits to classrooms and various university faculties.  The hands on activities which followed were a very popular.

The visit to the university was a great success and enjoyed by the students and family members who went.
