A reminder for all students that our school is a subscriber to the study skills website:
www.studyskillshandbook.com.au
This is a website that will help you develop essential skills for academic success. There are units of work on topics such as improving time management skills, how to study, research skills, summarizing, technology use, brain and memory. Basically everything you need to know about getting good marks at school can be found on this site. For example, learn how the colour of your room affects your ability to study, what the best study techniques are for your type of brain, how to improve your handwriting and useful software and apps to block yourself from technology distractions.
You will also see lots of useful handouts, grids and planners at the bottom of the THINGS TO PRINT page.

The more of this website you can work through the more you will set yourself up for academic success.
