Careers News

The 2023 Western Sydney Careers Expo was attended by Year 10 and Year 12 students from Evans High on Friday 23rd June. Every year students gain valuable knowledge surrounding industries and career pathways, as well as courses and the various providers that deliver them. It is always rewarding to see our students genuinely engaging with a range of providers, including; exploring creativity with the JMC Academy, our empathetic students curious about Medicine, our young women investigating careers in Construction and Engineering, and our leaders looking into Defence and Policing. Before our eyes they change from students to adults, ready for life after school to begin.

During Term 2 our school was selected to host a Department of Education photo shoot to promote our amazing students and our outstanding in-school Vocational Education and Training (VET) undertakings. We are incredibly fortunate here at Evans High to have quality teachers that are also trained to deliver a range of VET courses at school. The courses on offer for Years 11 and 12 include; Manufacturing, Entertainment, Hospitality, Sport Coaching, Retail, Construction and Internet and Digital Technology. Although, it will take a couple of months for the photos to be available, here are a few photos of the photographers photographing us. It was a lot of fun and students commented that they felt like movie stars. 

On 20th June four of our Evans High School Sustainability Project Students were invited by Doonside Probus Club to present to club members what they have been undertaking at Bungarribee Creek during term 2. Students Abbie Kirkup, Liam Elder, Benjamin Schultz and Hollie Robson all managed to overcome their nerves and demonstrate some of the equipment that has helped us collect camera trap footage of a local invasive red fox, underwater footage of invasive European Carp, measure local UV levels, record and identify the flora and fauna present on site and share with our community our findings through our ever developing Google Site. The aim of our project is to record the current condition of our local Bungarribee Creek, develop strategies to help improve the sustainability of our local wetland and spend some quality time outside the classroom learning about and connecting to country.
