ALUMNI Update

SLATER & GORDON INDUSTRY INSIGHT SESSION

As part of Frankston High School’s partnership with Ourschool, a group of Year 11 Legal Studies students attended an excursion at Slater & Gordon’s Collins St offices last week. A panel of staff from the leading Australian law firm, all government school educated, spoke to students about the pathway they took to reach their current position. They all had unique stories and experiences to share, and students were able to ask questions of their own.

Students were then treated to morning tea with a view before being taken on a tour and engaging in some small group conversations with Slater & Gordon staff working in different areas of the practice, also all government school educated. This allowed them to ask questions based on their own objectives and receive some real insight into their future career possibilities.

The students left inspired and a great deal more informed about the huge potential for careers in the legal profession.

ABOUT THE ALUMNI PROGRAM

Frankston High School is continuing to grow its alumni program in partnership with Ourschool, a not-for-profit alumni program for state secondary schools and the first of its kind in Australia.

By connecting with the alumni program, past students can provide career guidance and work experience opportunities for current students, establish scholarships and bequests, or volunteer in lots of other ways.

Ourschool is working with Frankston High to help these things happen by growing the school’s alumni community and coordinating the involvement of alumni in the school.
