Words of Wisdom from Class of 2020 Graduates
Advice from those who have gone before is invaluable. Our current Year 12 students were lucky to spend time listening to graduates from the Class of 2020 this week.
Alexia Jurkowski, Giorgia Paltridge, Emily Cleaver, and Ella Jones, offered the girls constructive, and practical advice on the year ahead. They shared various study methods that worked well for specific courses, ideas they had used to keep a balanced study and personal life, and ways in which they were able to keep themselves motivated throughout their final year at the College.
All the guidance offered by the girls was immensely valuable. It was great to hear from people who have recently left school and who have recently experienced Year 12 and all of its challenges. By taking on board their advice, the Class of 2021 can look forward to a successful and enjoyable final year ahead at the College.
