Careers & Pathways
CAREERS EDUCATION & PATHWAYS
As part of our Careers Education program, our Senior School team have organised a number of events for our senior students as they explore pathways beyond Year 12. To date we have taken students to:
- Year 12 Wollongong University – 11th to 12th February
- Experience LaTrobe – Monday 26th February
- Charles Sturt University Day – Tuesday 5th March
- Zonta ‘Young Women’s Career breakfast’ – Wednesday 7th March
- Wodonga TAFE School Experience Day – Friday 15th March , and there are more planned for Term 2 & 3!
Senior students continue to be involved in the Structured Work Placement program, and we thank local businesses for their continued support of our students. It is very much appreciated by students and their families as it provides valuable work life experiences. Lou has also been working with our Year 10 students in the Industry and Enterprise subject to support their Work Experience coming up in Term 2 – Monday 29th April to Friday 3rd May. Lou is expanding our Careers Education program and all year levels will be increasingly involved in investigating careers pathways.
