Year 10 Students Attend South Coast & Far South Coast Careers & Employment Expo

Last Friday, our Year 10 students had the exciting opportunity to attend the South Coast & Far South Coast Careers & Employment Expo, an event that provided valuable insights into future career paths, further education, and training opportunities.

Students engaged with over 30 exhibitors from a variety of industries, universities, and apprenticeship organisations. They had the chance to ask questions, gather information, and learn more about potential career pathways. The wide range of options on display allowed students to explore everything from traditional university degrees to vocational training and apprenticeships.

The TAFE building offered interactive displays in Hairdressing, Automotive, Beauty, Hospitality, and Nursing. Our students took full advantage of these hands-on sessions, gaining a practical understanding of what it’s like to work in these fields. For many, this was a chance to discover new interests and consider vocational study as a pathway to their future careers.

The University of Wollongong (UOW) hosted a series of seminars throughout the day, covering topics such as university options, TAFE, alternative pathways after school, and resume writing tips. These sessions were particularly beneficial, providing students with practical advice and strategies to help them stand out in future job and education applications.

We are proud of our students for taking full advantage of this opportunity and for the thoughtful and enthusiastic way they engaged with the exhibitors and activities. We encourage them to continue exploring their options and to keep the momentum going as they move forward in their career development.
