Welcome to Term 4, 2011!
A warm welcome back to all APC students for the final term of 2011 and we hope that our VET students have had a relaxing break. As many of you know, we ended last term with our inaugural Open Day which was a great success. So a big thank you to those who came along and participated!
We hope you were able to chat to some of our APC staff as well as the university and other pathway representatives who attended. Congratulations, as well, to our Lucky Door Prize winners!

Some recent Excursions and Weekend Trips
At the beginning of September APC students went on an excursion to Taronga zoo. It was a fantastic experience, not only to visit one of Australia’s most popular tourist destinations with stunning views of the harbour but to meet and socialise with other APC students and above all practise their English.
