Swinburne TAFE Tasters

In Week 6 of this term, the Pathways team are looking forward to taking Year 9 & 10 students to Swinburne University for some TAFE Experience Days. These will be a great opportunity for students to see what TAFE courses are available and hear about jobs related to the industries listed below. It will also be a good chance for our Year 9 students to see what VET options there are for Years 11 & 12.

Please see the options listed below. If students are interested in attending, they are asked to fill out this form out as soon as possible, as numbers are limited. Students are only able to attend one of the three experiences.

Please note: there will be NO cost associated with these excursions.

Pathways Celebrations

As our Year 12s approach the end of their schooling, we always look forward to celebrating with students when they receive offers for employment or tertiary education.

This week, two of our students were accepted into the Dual Diploma of Sport and Leadership & Management at Richmond Institute. Richmond Institute is the education arm of the Richmond Football Club and a leader in sports industry education. Through Richmond Football Club’s collaboration with Swinburne University of Technology and their connection with industry organisations, they provide outstanding experiences, outcomes and pathways for students.

Congratulations to Rico Gojar & Maggie Zhang on their acceptance into this course! We wish them all the best on their future endeavours.
