Careers 

Introducing Our New Careers Section! 

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our brand-new Careers Section in our school newsletter! As part of our commitment to supporting our students’ futures, this section will serve as a comprehensive resource for exploring career opportunities, educational pathways, and skill-building options.

 

Job Opportunities: Stay updated on part-time, full-time, and casual job openings that are perfect for students and graduates looking to gain work experience or start their careers.

Scholarships: We’ll feature a variety of scholarships, both academic and extracurricular, available to help ease the financial burden of further education. Keep an eye out for application deadlines and tips for applying.

University Courses: Explore a wide range of university programs, from arts to sciences, engineering to business. We’ll highlight courses that align with various career aspirations and provide insights into admission requirements and campus life.

TAFE & Skills-Based Courses: Not every career path requires a university degree, and TAFE or skills-based courses offer fantastic alternatives. We’ll spotlight vocational training opportunities that equip students with hands-on skills in trades, technology, health, and more.

 

Why is this important?

Navigating the next steps after school can be overwhelming. Whether you’re considering higher education, looking to jump straight into the workforce, or pursuing vocational training, our Careers Section is designed to provide you with the information and resources you need to make informed decisions about your future.

We encourage all students to take advantage of this new resource along with the Careers Noticeboard at school. If you come across any opportunities or have suggestions for content you’d like to see, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Your future starts now, and we’re here to help every step of the way!
