Mazenod College
VET Pathways & Workplace Learning
What an incredible term it has been in VET, as all Year 11 and 12 general students completed their work placements. The Year 10 I&E students are to complete their Work placements during Week 10.
We also have an exciting week planned next week for the Year 10 MyPath experiences followed by the subject selections in Week 10. I would like to congratulate all students for the way they have conducted themselves whilst out in the community and how they continue to demonstrate the values of what it means to be a Mazenod student.
As Term Three begins, it is a crucial time for senior school students as the Year 10 choose their pathways for next year, Year 10 and 11 apply for TAFE, and Year 12s explore apprenticeship opportunities for 2025.
