Pathways
We have a diverse and colourful College campus and we support students to explore career options in the workplace via our vocational pathways programme:
Gateway
Gateway is a workplace learning programme for students in Years 12 and 13 who are interested in a careers pathway in a particular industry or field of work.
Students go out into the workplace one day per week and are required to complete a Workplace Safety Course and a First Aid Course.

STAR
Our STAR short courses are a fun, practical way for students to get a little experience in their chosen industry/explore career options while still at school.The majority of courses are one day per week for six to twenty weeks. A popular option with students is the AgChallenge course.

Careers
During the year, many students get the opportunity to engage with guest speakers from a range of areas including Universities, Defense, and Trades. All year 12 and 13 students are also enroled in our digital careers noticeboard which allows students to gain up-to-date and relevant information on a variety of training options. Careers is also a topic covered in Academic Mentoring.
