Wurrin News - Year 9

Students At Work

Metals and Wood Design 

Our Year 9 students have been working really hard during their practical sessions. It's fantastic to see the determination and effort being put into their projects. 

The Smith Family - Work Inspirations Program

The Smith Family and Bairnsdale Secondary College offered a small group of students a unique chance to take a look behind-the-scenes and at the opportunities Ambulance Victoria, East Gippsland Shire Council, Dahlsens Bairnsdale and Dwyers Automotive Group provide. 

As part of this Work Inspirations program, students learnt about the various roles linked to these industries and the activities involved in the day-to-day operations. The structured Work Inspirations activities incorporated into this program enabled students to learn more about their skills and preferences, the workplace and how they can design and navigate their future.
