Last week twenty Grade 10 students participated in the first ever Newstead College/Queechy High School mentoring program. Below is a short summary of the program.
 
Name: Newstead Academic Mentoring Program 
Who is the program for? It is for students with above standard academic ability to gain further understanding of what is involved in specific Level 3/4 TASC subjects and to gain an insight into potential University pathways. 
How does the program work? Students will be supported by a mentor throughout the day and shadow a Newstead student and their individual timetable for the day. 
What is the University presentation? Participating students will hear all about how you apply to UTAS and career opportunities. Things like Schools Recommendation Program (SRP) are explained and the opportunities for scholarships and further subject offerings. 

Once again, a huge thank you to Adrian Dean from Newstead College for your continued support and hard work with supporting students at Queechy High to experience specific subjects and college-life experiences.
