Careers 

Our Year 12 students have completed their VTAC (Victorian Tertiary Admissions Centre) applications for Tertiary entry in 2024. The next step will be them receiving their results on December 11 and then the first round of Offers being made on December 21. Students have been briefed on the results and offers process last week in their Wellbeing session. They have also received a summary of key dates.  

RSA course 

We had 18 students and members of our school community participate in our recent RSA (Responsible Service of Alcohol) course on October 11. This certification must be obtained if you are planning to work in a licensed venue that serves alcohol in Australia. It provides participants with knowledge and skills to ensure that alcohol is served in a responsible manner, and any negative consequences because of alcohol consumption are minimised. We run the course for students every second year.
