I can not stress enough how important it is that all students have joined their relevant Careers Classroom. This is where all of these activities are advertised.

I have already advertised EOI for several programs that will run in early 2025.

Breaking news:

Due to the amazing response I have had from Year 9 about the Made for a Trade program, I have been lobbying to try and secure additional spots. This morning I have heard from Stacey Suidgeest that she has been able to secure an extra program just for Kildare students due to the number of students who expressed an interest in this program. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Stacey for the amazing opportunities that she organises for the students of Wagga. This additional funding to run the Made for a Trade program would not have happened without her advocating on our behalf. She is such an asset to the Wagga community.

Here are the links to the Careers/TaP Classrooms for all new students and those who have for some reason not already joined. Please join NOW. 

Your Classroom is where I will share any upcoming events or courses that you may be interested in. Often these events have limited spaces available and require an EOI so it is important that you make sure you are reading notifications.

Parents are also able to join as Guardians. If you would like to join the Careers Classroom of your child, please email kcc-careers@ww.catholic.edu.au and state your child's name and year group and that you would like to join the Careers Classroom.
