The following is taken from a message that I posted last year in response to a user asking about the types of questions that they may be asked during their interview at Baulkham Hills High School:

Essentially, you can expect a variety of questions, which will likely target your motivation to study at Baulkham Hills High School, including your academic capability and commitment to your studies. These are important qualities that are consistent with the general environment of selective schools. Here, you may be asked questions such as:

• Why do you want to attend our school?
• How can you contribute to our school?
• Which subject(s) do you enjoy the most and/or are most interested in?

Since being well-rounded is also a quality that is emphasised, you may be required to discuss elements that extend beyond your studies. These can include any hobbies and/or extracurricular activities that you engage in. Here, you may be asked questions such as:

• Do you have any hobbies?
• Do you participate in any extracurricular activities?
• If you have any hobbies and/or participate in any extracurricular activities, how do you make sure that you effectively manage your time so that your studies are not affected?

Best of luck with your interview! I hope this helps!
