Hello students
Have you ever wanted to play in a drum circle?
Would you like to meet other students through a drumming program at
school?
DRUMBEAT is a program that brings a small group together each week
for 10 weeks for an hour.
In this program you will:
•
Learn simple hand percussion rhythms
•
Talk about different things like peer pressure, identity,
dealing with emotions, building self confidence through music
and teamwork
•
Have
Linda Kwok (campus psychologist) and Feonagh Cooke (campus chaplain)
hope to run this program on a Thursday at school if YOU are interested.
If you’d like to be a part of this group, please let the front office know
your name and contact details before Friday 1 June.
We look forward to drumming with you.
•North Lakeʼs stand at the Careers Expo on the weekend was a popular place. Lots of
ex-students and future students dropped in to say hello.
Semester one exam
preparation
by Peter Hamilton
THE exams start in week seven and continue into week eight.
That means you have four weeks left to prepare for the exams.
What should you do?
That depends on what you have already done.
But, first of all you need to allocate some timeslots for the next 4
weeks to exam preparation.
Maybe one night, afternoon or morning just for exam
preparation. Select a time and keep it free from all interruptions.
How to prepare yourself
1. Review the WHOLE course as the exam will cover the WHOLE course
2. Identify the important topics where you spent a lot of time. You will get questions on these topics
3. Get past papers and get familiar with the structure of the exam
4. Practise under exam conditions – write answers in the allocated time. Get used to working fast!
5. Practise interpreting essay questions and doing essay plans in 5 -10 minutes
6. Never just be reading notes/texts, you must be testing yourself
Good luck and don't forget to see me if you want some individual help
