This week 58 Year 10 students have been out in the “real world” of work. Organised by the students, they have experienced a wide variety of occupations in over 80 workplaces, with most students trying two different workplaces throughout the week.
Students have been placed in businesses around Launceston and beyond. From aviation to finance, and teaching to personal training. The huge variety of career options being investigated during our work experience week has given students the opportunity to “test drive” future career ideas, as well as providing valuable learning about their potential education and training pathways. This experience inevitably results in students returning to school with a renewed appreciation of the value and relevance of their learning, in preparation for their TCE years and beyond.
We want to thank to the students for their dedication to this week and the businesses for welcoming and supporting our students.
