Our Year 12 VCE cohort were fortunate enough to get a snapshot of university life at our first ever Futures & Pathways camp that was held at Federation University Ballarat last week.
While the main focus was on exploring future pathway options, the students also enjoyed presentations and activities centred around wellbeing, inspiration and reflection, study skills and subject revision sessions, a mystery bus trip, all you can eat Pizza Hut, trivia and the extremely popular Best Breakfast Challenge. With the success of this year’s camp, planning is already under way for a bigger and better camp in 2024.
With Year 11 students approaching the midpoint of their last two years of school, a “Passions & Pathways” survey has been created to collect data on how best to support and guide them in their pathway decision making. The survey link has been emailed to all Year 11 students or can be completed using the link below: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdtxT-_xC8QJcIAjUkfRdWNzRKjvnQ4zekp93M6dTRCgF-UuA/viewform?usp=sf_link
Parents please ensure your child completes the survey by the end of next week. Thank you.
