Career and Learning Opportunities

Headstart Women in Trade

HeadStart will once again be holding their annual Women in Trade events at Federation TAFE.  This is an opportunity for any Year 9 female students who have NOT elected to do a VET subject in 2025:

 

Federation TAFE will host the following two events:

  • Day 1 - 8th November 2024 ~ 9 to10 students per school, focusing on Trades
  • Day 2 - 15th November 2024 ~ 3 students per school, focusing on Cookery, Baking, Hairdressing and Environment.

If you would like to be considered to attend either or both of these days please see Mr Trigg.

Fed TAFE Open Day

Federation TAFE will be holding an Open Day at their Gillies Street Campus for Agriculture, Horticulture, Conservation and Ecosystem Management, on Wednesday November 20th. They would love to see Year 9 and 10 students interested in the above fields, as they are again offering the VET Horticulture Taster class in 2026 and would like students to experience what a career in the industry entails.
