Young Women in Trade and Technologies 

By Ms Marriott - Careers Practitioner 

The Trades Fit - Young Women in Trades showcased employment options within the trades and tech industries to our students.

 

Our students witnessed interactive displays set up for students to experience what these careers could be.

The expo introduced our female students in years 9 and 10 to career pathways in traditionally male dominated industries. It provided them with information about how they can pursue exciting career opportunities in these fields.

 

The students heard from trade and tech representatives from fields including building and construction, electrical engineering, plumbing, automotive, transport and logistics, mining, agriculture and horticulture, aviation and marine.

 

Our students were able to engage with these career pathways through hands-on experiences, tech displays, information sessions, panel discussions, and guest speakers.

An exciting day for our students
