The day will start with a brief registration followed by a keynote session in The Farrall Centre. Following this, all students in Years 10, 11 and 12 will participate in 4 different sessions hearing from specialists from a variety of different industries and career fields. 

All students in Years 10, 11 and 12 will receive an email with the google sign up form in the next few days. We encourage students to read the information about each of the workshops in order to make the best selections.  We ask that students make their selections by 3pm on Wednesday 3 May.
