Wednesday, 3rd April 5:00 – 6:00pm
As mentioned in previous Newsletters we are still waiting on information from Catholic Schools NSW in relation to 2024 arrangements.
As soon as I have clarification, which I am expecting this week, I will let all students know via their Classroom.
An evening Zoom will be arranged for students and parents so I can go through the process and ask any questions. You will receive notification of the time of the Zoom via Compass
I created the The Tertiary Toolbox video series to support students and parents in navigating the often complex journey of investigating and applying to tertiary education. Through short (usually under 5 minutes) video content, The Tertiary Toolbox series endeavours to shed light on different academic pathways and program options, to demystify the intricacies of the application process, and provide guidance on navigating challenges such as financial aid and scholarship opportunities.
I have linked the Videos that have already been uploaded. As new content is recorded, the links will be added

ATAR recap
Here are the links to the Careers/TaP Classrooms for all new students and those who have for some reason not already joined. Please join NOW.
Your Classroom is where I will share any upcoming events or courses that you may be interested in. Often these events have limited spaces available and require an EOI so it is important that you make sure you are reading notifications.
Parents are also able to join as Guardians. If you would like to join the Careers Classroom of your child, please email kcc-careers@ww.catholic.edu.au and state your child's name and year group and that you would like to join the Careers Classroom.
This will be the main platform used for our Careers notices and activities.
For Year 12 - Choose either of these Classrooms or both

In Term 2 we will be implementing a new program ‘TaP Tuesdays’
Every student from Year 7–12 will engage in a short Careers type activity during Coaching on Tuesdays. Some weeks the whole school will do the same activity, however most weeks it will be specific to each year group.
Until Term 2, Years 9–10 will just be encouraged to check their Google Classroom on Tuesdays during Coaching for any events that are coming up that they may be interested in.
