Spare a thought for other airlines where you are learning 4+ different aircraft types in GS, not here where there is just 1 aircraft.

I found that the equipment component to be the hardest, more so the theory not the practical. Make sure you are well versed on the correct preflight checks, operation, and precautions on all equipment to the best of your ability, ESPECIALLY with your 'Super Six'. You may also need to know the locations of the aforementioned as well.

But generally speaking, if your GS instructor has any handouts or homework, do them! Take the time to continually refresh your knowledge of the manuals (use millions of sticky notes), and continually quiz yourself using other members of your GS, and reciprocate to them likewise.
Thank you so much slipspace, you have put me at ease. It is very very daunting! Especially coming from the first week which was so relaxed. And I just stress, hehe... yes trying to remember all that equiptment is quite hard :/ but I am defiantly looking forward to happier days at the end of this week.

Truly thankyou so much for your advise! I will take it all on board.

I hope all has been well with you? Have you commenced flying!
