Careers & Pathways Update  

Are you able to host a Work Experience student?

We have students keen to gain insight into a variety of careers; in particular, Engineering, Law, Medicine, Plumbing, Electrical, Animal Health and Marine Science.

Work Experience provides students with the valuable opportunity to:

• develop employability skills
• explore possible career options
• understand employer expectations, and
• increase their self-understanding, maturity, independence and self-confidence.

Current Work Experience opportunities are also regularly posted for Year 10 students in OneNote in the Careers Channel, for example; Phillip Island Nature Parks Secondary School Work Experience - Study Work Grow  or 'a day In Her Boots (see below).
