Careers

As we enter the final term of the year, it’s natural to feel a mix of excitement and anxiety. 

Whether you’ve already secured employment, applied to university, or are still exploring your options, remember that you’re not alone.

I’m here to support you through this critical time. If you need guidance with job applications, university choices, or any other career-related matters, please reach out to me as soon as possible. I’m more than happy to help you navigate this transition and ensure you’re ready for what comes next.

Additionally, take advantage of 'Tuesday Talks,' held every Tuesday morning during Coaching. Simply sign in and head over to the staff lunchroom for an informal drop-in session where I’ll be available to address any questions or concerns you might have. There’s no specific theme for these sessions for the remainder of the term—just come by and get the support you need.

Let’s make this final term a productive and successful one together!

See Classroom for details and to register. Depending on time of publishing, registration for some of these events may be closed

In many cases there are limits on the number of students who can participate. When this is the case, it is made very clear how spots will be allocated. For example it may be preference is given to

• First in first served
• A certain year group
• Students who have had a meeting with me and discussed what their plans are post school
• Students who have not participated in certain activities previously

Every Wednesday morning I will be in the Staff Lunchroom during Coaching to answer any questions about Work Experience. It is also a good time for you to come and hand in any Work Experience paperwork. Go to Homegroup, get marked off, and then head over.

Here are the links to the Careers/TaP Classrooms for all new students and those who have for some reason not already joined. Please join NOW. 

Your Classroom is where I will share any upcoming events or courses that you may be interested in. Often these events have limited spaces available and require an EOI so it is important that you make sure you are reading notifications.

This will be the main platform used for our Careers notices and activities.

UPDATE on parent access. Google has recently informed us that parents should now be able to see posts, not just assignments. If you would like to join the Careers Classroom of your child, please email kcc-careers@ww.catholic.edu.au and state your child's name and year group and that you would like to join the Careers Classroom. If you had emailed previously and it is still not working for you, please email again.
