Year 10 Careers Expo and Years 10, 11, & 12 First Nations Students Youth Job Expo<\/strong><\/p>\n

On July 29, our entire Year 10 cohort participated in an enriching Careers Expo at the Townsville Stadium designed to broaden their understanding of potential career paths. The event included a variety of career exploration opportunities, helping students gain insights into different professions and the educational requirements needed to pursue them. It was an excellent occasion for our students to explore their interests and plan their future career paths.<\/p>\n

First Nations students from Years 10 to 12 had the opportunity to attend the First Nations Youth Expo on August 8 at the PCYC Aitkenvale. This expo provided targeted job opportunities and career advice specifically relevant to their communities. It was a valuable event that connected students with resources and guidance to support their career aspirations and offer tailored support for their professional growth.<\/p>\n

Both events were instrumental in helping our students make informed decisions about their future careers and educational pathways.<\/p>\n
