A mock graduation ceremony, complete with mortar boards will cap off a visit to Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Albury-Wodonga by 75 primary school students on Wednesday 20 May. The Year-6 students from Albury West, Hume and Glenroy Public Schools will spend the day on campus participating in a selection of workshops to give them first-hand experience of university life as part of Check It Out Day. Program coordinator Ms Ilena Young said, "The aim is to encourage aspiration for higher education among students in rural and remote NSW and Victoria. By introducing young people to the world of university study, students are encouraged through a positive experience to become more engaged in school studies and more confident in considering tertiary study as a realistic option." Students will participate in hands-on activities, tour the campus and eat lunch in the student canteen before donning ceremonial mortar boards in a mock graduation. Check It Out Day is part of the Future Moves, program a federally-funded initiative run through CSU and aligned with the Australian Blueprint for Career Development.
