Events
On Monday 4th April our Year 10 students visited the Federation University campus at Churchill.
Students were given a study skills session on techniques and strategies that will enable them to be more effective learners as future VCE and University students.
Our guest lectures this year included Sports Science and Occupational Therapy. This session opened the eyes to all students on career opportunities in both occupations.
Students were also given a quick tour of the nursing training facility, where they were able to check pulse rates, how to give CPR and instructions on giving injections to dummies.
Students were treated to a delicious lunch provided by the Federation team.
Unfortunately, we were not able to visit student accommodation due to COVID restrictions.
