In the October holidays, we're running exam sessions (lunch included) for HSC Maths, Chemistry and Physics, to encourage students to sit past HSC papers under real exam conditions. It's one of the best ways to walk into the actual exams in Term 4 feeling ready.

If your child is already in our HSC Program, they'll be automatically enrolled. There's nothing you need to do.

Book using the form for your subject below, or get in touch for more details.
