It is great to see our Year 13 students actively engaged in checking out a range of careers.
Last Friday afternoon, Fern Stoddart, Emily Harrex and Nia Kulkarni went to visit the School of Surveying.
They had the opportunity to talk to a second year student (Devon Allen, OGHS student from 2017) and other survey staff about what they do and what surveying is all about. All students are welcome to request a career exploration visit to organisations within our community. We will always do our best to ensure they get the right information and connections, so that they can make sensible informed decisions about study and career pathways.
