Castle Hill Library Opens For HSC Students

Published on 08 October 2018

Castle Hill Library will open its doors exclusively to HSC students on Sunday mornings from October 7 until October 28 between 9.30am to 1pm.

During the study sessions, students will have access to Wi-Fi, computers, photocopying and printing facilities and staff will be available to help with any student enquires.

“Making our libraries accessible during what can be a stressful time is one way Council is supporting our Year 12 students during their exams,” Mayor of The Hills Shire, Dr Michelle Byrne said.

“Our positive and well-resourced space is perfect for students to study free from interruption,” Mayor Byrne added.  

The HSC study session is a free event, however students must book online prior to attending the library and bring their ticket and student ID on the day.

Adding to the resources available for Year 12 students, the Hills Shire Libraries have subscribed to an online study companion, HSC Study Lab – Science.

The free online resource features video lessons, simulations, interactive activities to explain concepts and HSC-style practice questions for science based subjects.

All content is based on the NSW syllabus and is produced by experienced Year 11 and 12 teachers and exam markers.
