St Patrick’s College students nominated for a Work Placement Award for their work placement undertaken during 2023 for VET studies.

 

Many students in Year 11 completed their first work placement last term for either VET Construction, VET Entertainment Industry, VET Hospitality or VET Information and Digital Technology.

 

CONGRATULATIONS to the following students who have been nominated for a Work Placement Award for their work placement undertaken last term:

This recognition of the great work the students have undertaken reflects positively on the school and the efforts of the student’s VET teacher. In particular, it highlights VET as a real opportunity for young people to shine.
