Work Experience Year 10 Program

Our Year 10 students will be undertaking work experience for five days from the 2nd of December to the 6th of December 2024.  This is an invaluable opportunity that allows students the opportunity to gain firsthand experience in various professional settings, helps them explore potential career pathways and develop essential skills for their future endeavours.

To assist our students with sourcing placements for this program, we are reaching out to our wonderful community members for support.  If you, or someone you know, would be interested in hosting a student for five days during this period, we would greatly appreciate your support in providing our students with a fulfilling and educational experience. 

 

If you are interested in offering a placement or would like more information about the program, please contact the Pathways team at Craigieburn Secondary College via email at vivian.neill@education.vic.gov.au  

 

Thank you for your continued support in enriching the educational experiences of our students.
