Year 10 Work Ready Program
01.12.25
Over the past 12 days, Year 10 students have taken part in a vibrant program designed to build their work-related skills. From work experience placements to interactive workshops, presentations, excursions, and volunteering, the schedule was packed with opportunities to learn and grow.

Highlights included visits to Newcastle University and a presentation from Macquarie University, the Illuminate Program, a money management workshop, and sessions on becoming scam-savvy. Students explored career pathways through North Construction, heard an inspiring personal journey from an Eddies Old Boy, and engaged with the Australian Defence Force (ADF) to learn about future opportunities.

They also deepened their understanding of First Nations culture during an excursion to Bouddi National Park and supported the Over 55 community in Terrigal through a gardening project.

Special interest workshops added even more variety, with activities such as creating a personal brand, fishing, kayaking, buying and affording a car, eating for performance and recovery, cooking basics, creating music, and a maths extension course.

It’s been a dynamic and rewarding program that has equipped students with practical skills and broadened their horizons for the future.
