Pathways and Transition

EXPO 2020

A big thanks to all the training organisations that attended the Expo on Thursday and to our wonderful staff and students at the College. The level of engagement from our Year 10 students was outstanding and the feedback was extremely positive. Let’s hope that they made the most of this opportunity and it helps with decisions regarding course selection for Year 11 and 12.

By the end of day, I had received several emails all complementing our students and staff:

“I wanted to thank you for your time today. My colleague Dave and I thoroughly enjoyed facilitating this event and I hope yourself and students found it helpful.”

“We wanted to commend you on your event, the general layout was very well thought out and we loved your idea to pepper the event heads throughout the Expo – we hadn’t seen that before! Very well done and beneficial for students.” (Murdoch University)
