Headstart for university

13/9/2018

 
Picture
Shearwater students, pictured with their Guardians, attended a graduation ceremony at Southern Cross this week, after they completed the university's Head-Start program. Congratulations to all of these students on their success.
Seven senior Shearwater students graduated from the Head-Start program at Southern Cross University this week, several achieving top results in their courses. The Head-Start program allows school students to enrol in a unit at university, alongside first-year tertiary students, attending classes one day a week for 13 weeks and giving them an experience of university life. Completed units may contribute to their HSC and provide pathways into Southern Cross University.
Special mention to Year 11 student Oliver Bora for achieving a Distinction in Processes and Philosophy of Engineering and to Year 12 student Jason Howarth who received a Distinction in Visual Communication and Design. An extra special mention to Year 12 student Lorien Davis who achieved a High Distinction, and was the top Head-Start student, in the Visual Communication and Design course.
​Other units on offer as part of the program are Biology and Communication in Organisations.
