World of Beauty
Apprenticeships provide a career pathway for students to learn skills whilst undertaking paid work. This week we celebrate Marnie Douglas (Year 11) who has successfully obtained a Beauty Therapist apprenticeship with Sirona Beauty in Wagga.
Marnie will be studying online whilst undertaking full-time paid employment.
When asked about her chosen career, she replied “I’m passionate about women’s wellbeing and the importance of self-care. This type of job allows me to help others and make them feel better about themselves. There is also the bonus, that long-term you can work anywhere and set up your own practice.”
Congratulations Marnie, we wish you well for your future endeavours.
