April Holiday’s Recommended Study Plan

Mar 30, 2015

Hi Everyone,

The April Holidays offer an opportunity to recharge the batteries before we enter the second and more challenging half of the climb up Mount HSC. A strong performance over these holidays will position students well for a very busy Term 2.

We have created our recommended list of “TO DO ITEMS” for the April Holidays to both reduce the stress from Term 2 as well as make serious progress towards great Trial Exam results. This list has been entered straight onto your Basecamp to do list so that you can get straight into ticking these items off. By keeping everything on Basecamp you can be kept accountable by us as well as keeping your parents aware of the work you have completed.

Please feel free to edit/add/customise this list on your Basecamp project to match your subjects/tasks.

It is a long list of tasks, but if you complete it I promise you will be glad you did when the results come out in December.

April Holidays in summary

3 or 4 days off from study(pretend you are not an HSC student)
5 to 6 hours quality study per day on all other days. Tasks shown below are quality study.
Work through the below list of tasks one by one.
Eat your frog first – Always work on the task that you least want to do first and the rest of your tasks will be a “walk in the park”

TO ACCESS THIS LIST OF TASKS PLEASE LOGON TO YOUR BASECAMP PROJECT

Basecamp is your Holiday Study Plan

All you need to do is add due dates to the tasks that are already on your list and you will have your to do list as calendar style study plan.

Any questions please post a message on your Basecamp project.

Thanks team

So many students wait until they feel motivated or have a solid study plan before they begin 🙅‍♀️🙅

But in reality, motivation usually comes after the first action is taken. You don’t need the perfect plan. You just need the first step.

Start small. Just start.

What does a week at CoWorks look like?

It’s not just one session. It’s not just one weekly touchpoint.

It’s a full system of support designed to build confidence and keep students consistently organised, proactive and motivated across the week.

We still have a few places available for Year 12 students across our campuses. If you’re interested, we’d love to invite you to a free 7-day trial so you can see why students choose CoWorks.

April Study Bootcamp is coming...

The April holidays are a critical time for Year 12 students preparing for the busiest assessment term of the year. While a short break is important, using some of this time to get ahead can make a huge difference for Term 2.

At Bootcamp, students will:
✅ Build essays for upcoming texts and modules
🎯 Practice exam-style responses for completed topics
💡 Strengthen readiness for Term 2 assessments

For Year 11 students, one third of the year is already complete. With only two terms until the HSC year begins, this is the perfect time to consolidate preliminary topics and build strong foundations.

Across the 4-hour structured session each day, students tackle English and other key “frog” subjects to ensure meaningful progress before the term begins.
