Careers & Pathways News 

Koorie Careers and Pathways Expo

On Monday 23 October, Mr Crameri and two of our students attended the Koorie Careers and Pathways Expo held at CHES in South Yarra. The event brought together over 100 students from the Bayside and Peninsula region to explore and network with future career pathways and opportunities.

Our students, Ruby K and Jayden R were able to talk with University reps, Apprentice networks, Industry connections and importantly, their peers. The day’s highlights were the smoking ceremony that opened the event and the guest speakers, Glenn Manton and Jarman Impey, who shared some deeply personal stories about their lives and career pathways.

Year 12 students are reminded yet again that they cannot enrol in a CSP (Commonwealth Supported Place) university course next year without a Tax File Number (TFN).  Students who do not have one are reminded to apply for a TFN online and have their identity verified through an interview at a participating Australia Post office.

Study Abroad & Exchange Programs - Victorian Universities 

Students who choose to take up an opportunity to do some of their university study overseas get the opportunity to immerse themselves in another culture, study at an overseas university, and really get to engage with students and lecturers at those institutions.  

A bonus of many study-abroad programs is that students get to study for one or two semesters at these overseas partner institutions and earn credit towards their degrees.
