Congratulations to all the Year 10 students who have already completed a week of Work Experience. Host organisations so far this year have included workplaces as diverse as Opera Australia, the NSW Treasury, a rural solicitors’ practice, Taronga Zoo, the ACCC and the Australian Defence Signals Directorate. All Year 10 students are expected to arrange at least one week of work experience. Students needing help contacting organisations, or completing paperwork, should speak to Ms Salisbury in the Careers Office.
