Year 9 Careers

Year 9 students participated in 'Coaching Young People for Success' workshops conducted by Glenn Irvine last week. The workshops aimed to:

Build student self-awareness and motivation by connecting them to their unique strengths and passions
Identify a vision and set goals for their life and career that excites and motivates them
Strengthen the social and emotional skills they need to be successful
Identify the priority areas and make a plan to improve their performance and wellbeing in all areas of their life
Set tailor made learning goals that will improve their school performance

Students all created an individual Career Action Plan that families will be able to view via Xuno soon.

Year 12 Careers

The Year 12 students welcomed guest speakers Amanda from Shepparton Greater City Council and Steve from NAB today as part of their Careers program. Amanda and Steve spoke with the students about their life journey so far and shared advice about important employability skills, resilience and finding their way in the world.

Thank you to Amanda and Steve for giving up their time today and to the Greater Shepparton Lighthouse Project for their assistance in organising the visit.

Industry Tour

We would like to thank JEFTOMSON Fruit packing for allowing McGuire students to visit their workplace and volunteering their time to show us their massive business operation that explained how the fruit went from the trees to the shops going through the packing shed and logistics and maintenance hub.

Special shoutout to Michael Parker for taking the day off work to support us with by showing and telling us about his job and the Greater Shepparton Lighthouse Project for organising the day.
