Year 10 Snow and Queensland Trips and Work Experience

This week students in Year 10 are attending the 2025 Snow Trip, Queensland Trip and/or completing work experience. The trips were a fantastic success and I would like to extend a big thank you to all staff who attended, and for the leadership of Mr Offer, Ms McQueen, Mr Nield, and Mr Kirne in coordinating and managing the trips.

The opportunity to complete work experience is something the College encourages all eligible students to undertake as it as a great lead in to understanding the workforce and what jobs really look like. I would like to publicly thank all of the businesses who support our students, it is truly appreciated. Thank you also to Genni Smith for her commitment to following up paperwork and finding places for students to investigate their dreams.
