CAREERS CORNER
YEAR 10 SENIOR SUBJECT SELECTION MENTORING INTERVIEWS
Year 10 are making some important decisions regarding their senior study choices. It is a daunting time for most students trying to figure out what they should choose to study in Year 11 & 12.
To have the best opportunity at success, it is important for students to harness their strengths and find what they enjoy; a combination of these is more likely to lead to not only success, but better engagement in the senior years. Sometimes, students will need to have studied a particular course/subject in order to meet pre-requisite requirements to be eligible for specific courses, though, this is rarely the case.
Following on from a successful Subject Selection evening late last term, students have submitted their choices and completed their mentoring interview with Mrs Pangis and senior executive at school to finalise their selections.
YEAR 12 STUDENTS - a reminder
Don’t forget to apply to any/all early entry opportunities you’re eligible for, most of these will be closing soon – please check the Careers google classroom for more information.
Also, if you’re planning to apply to University, remember to activate your UAC account before 30th September as the registration for this will increase on that date.
Finally, whilst in UAC, apply for SRS and EAS (if eligible)!
You can find more information about all of this and more in the Careers google classroom, the UAC website https://www.uac.edu.au/ and please see Mrs Pangis for any assistance.

Work Experience
Work Experience - Year 10 2026
In 2025, Year 10 students will have the opportunity to participate in one/two week(s) of Work Experience. This program is a part of secondary schooling and integral to the Career Education Program at this school. The aim of the program is for students to gain first-hand experience in a work situation and develop an understanding of the process involved in choosing a career.
We would appreciate your assistance in encouraging your daughter to participate in this worthwhile program. Students who leave work experience organisation to the last minute, often miss out of their desired career choice. All placements and paperwork for Work Experience are to be finalised 3 weeks before the date of any work experience.
The following weeks have been set aside for any student wishing to do work experience, these dates will be flexible, and students can negotiate with the Careers Adviser and their teacher to go on work experience for the week. If these dates are not suitable with employers, students can discuss this with the Careers Adviser.
