Also if possible can you give me some tips and suggestions for learning and listening in class. And being prepared for high school.

Answer 1

You spelled everything correctly in your question so you are most of the way there; most people on this site can barely spell their own names!  

Don't worry about preparing yourself for the subjects, you will be taught everything you need to know.

Answer 2

- Religious education: find books on religious education. Read Da Vinci Code because I heard some schools do it for religious education. Read the bible.

- English: read books. e.g. try Oliver Twist, Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Great Expectations, Wuthering Heights, etc

- Mathematics: buy textbooks and practice. If not, then dont bother. Maths is hard to learn by yourself and you may end up getting more confused

- Science: get science encyclopedias and start memorising facts

- HSIE: buy a textbook and read. try to learn to read synoptic charts, topographic maps, etc

- TAS: its really nothing. Just make sure you investigate your computer and know how to use it

- Creative and Performing Arts: for music, self learn to read scores in treble and bass clef. for art, just draw. if you are doing cooking and textile, dont bother. its not really important.

- PDHPE: its nothing. you can bullshit in your tests. its really easy. Its just all about safety and crossing the road. Its common sense. Dont worry about it

- Italian: buy a dictionary and learn. Otherwise, dont bother. Everyone starts at the same level. Just try harder than other people when a test comes

Answer 3

I would go to the library and find books on the subject and read, read, read.
