The third instalment of the Year 10 Careers Development program was held on Friday 6 June.
In the lead up to this event students had undertaken sessions with Lizzie Wagner on professional presentation, then with the assistance of Judy Cussons, completed their resume, along with a covering letter for a job position. They then undertook a mock job interview with professionals from the community of Tumbarumba. Students from Batlow Technology School took the opportunity to be involved in this as well.
This has been an amazing journey for these students and has given them the opportunity to see what is involved in applying for a job, preparation and presentation of themselves and then actually undertaking an interview, albeit a mock one. The school is certain that the students will be better prepared for their future careers by undertaking this program.
The school would like to take this opportunity of thanking those community members that gave up their time to assist the students. Our thanks are extended to Miss Pholi, Careers Adviser, who played an integral part in the organisation of this program.
The students were also fortunate enough to have two former students of the school attend this day and outline their career journies.
