Exploring different career pathways is an exciting journey! Visiting the Careers Centre is a great place to start and find out about your options. Your career journey is unique to you, and it’s okay to explore different paths before finding the right fit. Stay curious, proactive, and open-minded as you navigate your career pathway.

The Careers Centre is open to all students. Located at the back of the library, access is through the side door opposite S Block – even when the library is closed!

In the Careers Centre students are welcome to come in and browse or sit and do some of their own research about their future pathways - we have a great range of prospectuses and brochures from tertiary education providers. The Careers Centre staff are more than willing to help answer questions or queries. For a more in-depth discussion, students can make an individual appointment to see our Careers Pathways Coordinator, Mr Bennett. Appointments can be made in the Centre - so come in and see us!
