VIC VICE

On Wednesday 24th April Donald High School Year 9 and 10 students participated in VIC VICE run by Julie Bourke and Mary-Ann Sait from the North Central LLEN. VIC VICE is a cutting-edge virtual reality platform that offers students in Victorian classrooms a chance to experience various workplaces in a fully immersive, interactive and multi-sensory way. Aligned with the Victorian Curriculum, VIC VICE supports career awareness and aspiration, unlocking new experiences and opportunities for students. The VR platform also considers the findings of the Firth Review and is designed to engage students in their middle years. With 360-degree video and video-game style simulations, VIC VICE provides a more accessible alternative to traditional work experience and industry tours. 

Our students were able to choose interactive 3D careers experiences in the industries of Community Services, Food and Fibre, Health or Transport and Logistics. This experience was engaging and well received by the students, and we thank Julie and Mary-Ann from the NCLLEN for providing our students with this opportunity.
