On Friday 31 May our Year 10 and Year 11 students attended the Career’s Expo. It is a major event and greatly supports our students in understanding pathways, courses and options for post-school. The students visited over 80 exhibitors including universities, TAFE and private providers. There were large employers and employer associations to advise students on employment. The students obtained a significant amount of information and were excitedly discussing this the rest of the day.
