Year 10 Students
We are now well into our program of Careers classes with the Year 10 students. All Year 10 students undertook the Morrisby Online program on Tuesday 11 May. Most of the students approached the task very thoughtfully and with maturity. We are hoping they have found their reports to be useful and insightful. A handful of students have not finished the program and are able to complete the task at any time, but hopefully in the very near future. Please contact staff in B21 if there are any issues or concerns.
Year 12 Students
Year 12 VCE students will attend an excursion to La Trobe University on Friday 21 May. We are very excited to be able to take the students onto a university campus, especially given the restrictions which have been in place at tertiary institutions up until recently. We hope students will find this a useful activity and, for those still quite unsure of their future direction, an opportunity to reflect further and undertake some practical course and career research. For those who are confident of their direction, we hope students will gain some valuable skills to put into place when attending Open Days later in the year and also some useful information to aid them with their future pathway planning. A report of the activity will appear in the next Career News.
