On Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 June 2010, the fifty
fourth Mind Quest program will be held for gifted and
talented students from Years 1 to 6 at Quakers Hill
HS. These include gifted and talented students, gifted
underachievers and students with well above average
ability with a special interest. Students will have an
opportunity to participate in over 36 exciting, fast
paced courses in the two day program. They include
courses in chemistry, earth sciences, drama, lego,
robotics and much more. Most of these highly
successful courses have been run on the past and
students evaluations suggest that they have been
challenged and enriched by the experience. The cost
of the weekend is $150 (GST included)
Quakers Hill is easy to get to from most parts of
Sydney.
If you are interested in Mind Quest, contact Ms
Jones for a brochure or call Shelagh Poray 02
