Trade & Tech Fit Career Expo
Wednesday 8 May
Students from Years 9 to 11 attended the Trade & Tech Fit career expo at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC).
Hosted by the Department of Education, the Trade & Tech Fit is a career expo for female and gender diverse secondary school students that showcases exciting careers in traditionally male-dominated industries.
The expo was 100% hands-on, allowing students to design video games, lay bricks, weld, fly planes, program a robot, safety test equipment, use power tools, learn to paint and more while understanding more about the range trade and tech industries available.

Work Experience

Work Experience at Lilydale High School can occur at any time within the school year for up to 5 school days or 10 days.
Students interested in completing Work Experience can see Mr Kogelman or Ms Skewes, who will inform them of necessary processes and forms required to complete Work Experience.
