STAR Program

The STAR Program is an exciting opportunity for Jindabyne Central School students in Years 6-12 to engage in one-on-one or small group tutoring in a supportive environment. As well as all Secondary students, this program is offered to all students in Year 6 to provide extra support and as part of the Transition to high school program.

Students attending the STAR program are provided additional support to complete classwork, homework, assessment tasks, develop study skills, development of literacy and numeracy skills, revise key course concepts or just a quiet place to get school work done. STAR is staffed by three qualified teachers with a broad range of expertise and who are engaged to assist your child in achieving the very best they can. Students can benefit from assistance with breaking down assessment tasks and in completing homework as well as improved course work, and investigation and research skills. All subjects across all years can be assisted. Computers are available if required.

STAR operates Tuesday and Thursday afternoons from 3:30 to 5:30pm. Students can stay for a little while or for the whole time, with the expectation they attend in order to maximise their own learning. Students sign in and out and are expected to follow instructions from staff whilst in attendance.

JCS highly values the opportunity that a facility like STAR provides to our students and community. There is no cost for attendance at STAR and students are provided with afternoon tea. Students are welcome to come along as often as they like.
