Skill fix day at CSU
29 AUGUST 2014
School students from Coolamon Central, Narrandera High and Leeton High will visit Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Wagga Wagga on Monday 1 September to learn about the higher education opportunities in the region. About 40 students from Year 11 are expected to attend the Skill Fix Day from 10am to 1.30pm. The event is part of CSU's Future Moves program which was developed to encourage aspiration for higher education among students in rural and remote NSW and Victoria. The students will be involved in a range of on-campus sessions covering study and research skills that relate to university learning. While on campus, students will participate in activities with Future Moves Leaders, listen to a guest lecture from the Executive Dean of the Faculty of Science Professor Tim Wess and tour the CSU campus and accommodation. "The Skill Fix Day is an opportunity for students to meet current Charles Sturt University (CSU) students and staff, who will inspire and deliver up-to-date information about studying at university and living on campus," said Ms Ravnita Sharma, Future Moves Program Co-ordinator.
