YEAR 10 WORK EXPERIENCE

Year 10 Work Experience Program 2024

During Term 4 all Year 10 students at the WA College of Agriculture Harvey will be required to participate in the Work Experience Program. The program provides an invaluable opportunity for students to learn and develop some of the many skills they need for employment. There are many benefits to students:

• best possible start to identifying career options; 
• meaningful input in the preparation for the transition from school to work;
• opportunity to explore possible career pathways.

The Work Experience Program will occur in the term's last two weeks. There are two options available, and students select to undertake one:

Option 1:   Week 9: Monday 2nd – Friday 6th December (COMPULSORY) – all students undertake work experience with one employer.

OR

Option 2:   Week 9 & 10: Monday 2nd – Thursday 12th December (excluding the weekend) – this option is inclusive of the compulsory week 9 option above and is for students who wish to undertake a longer period of work experience with the one employer. Please note the last day for this block is Thursday 12th December as this is the last official day of the school year for students.

Please find attached the document emailed home to all the Year 10 parents.

Please complete the application form which can be found in this document to Mrs Raper at Amelia.Raper@education.wa.edu.au by Wednesday, 16th October.
