ALUMNI & CAREERS

Careers

Well done to the students in Years 7 to 10 who have completed their Career Action Plans as part of their HRC program this term. These plans are instrumental for students to discover their strengths, identify interest areas, focus on goals for the future and work out exactly what they are wanting to achieve in school, work and life. They are a culimination of the Careers & Pathway focussed work that has been delivered this term in all HRC classes.

As VCE students get closer to finishing off their final year it is important that they also prioritise course preferences and SEAS & Scholarship applications in order to meet the following VTAC deadlines. The VTAC website has a wealth of information and is a key starting point https://vtac.edu.au/.

As always support is available at all stages of this process. Please do not hesitate to get in touch.
