Students attended a lecture on each of their HSC topics by an expert in the field. These topics included Conflict in the Pacific, Core Unit - Power and Authority, USA National Study and Civil Rights in the USA. The main objective of these lectures was not only to give a thematic summary of the main themes but to provide practical examination strategies and advice. Many of the presenters are HSC markers and they gave the students feedback on what the markers are looking for in their responses.

After the lectures, we also explored the campus and students were particularly impressed by the Main Quadrangle and its neo-Gothic architecture. We paid a quick visit to the new Chau Chak Wing Museum, looking at the mummy room, the Roman and Greek collections and the art gallery.

The students certainly had a 'taste' of university life and I hope they enjoyed visiting my alma mater as much as I did. Thank you to Noor A for the photos.
