University of NSW - UNSW Gateway Program Year 10

Year 10 students on their way to the University of NSW

A wonderful day for our Year 10 students through our University of NSW and Plumpton High School partnership through the UNSW Gateway Program. The Gateway Program is for students in Years 10, 11 and 12 who want to discover UNSW degree options, explore future career opportunities and access additional resources for the HSC. Participating in the Gateway Program also provides critical support to receive an early offer to UNSW through the Gateway Admission Pathway.

Students worked through a terrific session identifying their values and then matching those values against career options. The second session was with NIDA, where students developed their confidence and communication skills through some hilarious activities.

After lunch, students were given the opportunity to network with University Ambassadors, students from other schools and other University staff members.

Our students conducted themselves in an exemplary manner and continued to build their confidence and understanding that they can succeed at a university such as UNSW. The University team were full of praise for the way in which our students engaged.

Thank you to UNSW for providing our students an amazing opportunity to broaden their knowledge of possibilities to pursue beyond school.

Tim Lloyd, Principal
