Career News
Term 1
There’s a lot happening in the Careers and Pathways space at Wantirna College in Term 2.
Our Year 9s have been busy finishing off their Morrisby profiles in preparation for their interviews with Career Practitioners in Weeks 6 and 9. Parents and students should keep their eyes peeled for communication regarding how to book a time in the next week.
Year 10s are off on Work Experience next week – we can’t wait to hear about their variety of experiences! We are also busy preparing for TAFE & Uni visits in Term 3 with communication to come later this term.
Many of our Year 12s have been taking the opportunity to book appointments with Mrs Jessie Dennison & Mr Tim Knowles for careers conversations – we always love discussing the wide variety of pathways that our students explore. We encourage Year 12s to continue to use Compass Conferences to book a time during lunch or a study period to have a pathways conversation and to consider their options for post-secondary.

Career & Pathways Appointments
Parents should ask their Year 12 student to book a Careers and Pathways appointment with one of the Career Practitioners using the conference booking system on Compass. Students should choose a time when they do not have a scheduled class. We aim to meet with all Year 12 students during the year. This facility will be visible each time students login to Compass. We also welcome meetings with parents. These may be booked on request.
Please contact us for more information.
