Once again our Year 10 students have represented the College very well in a wide variety of work places.  There are many stories of our students rising to the challenge of learning to be knowledgeable and responsible and deporting themselves in a mature way in some very demanding work environments.

Anthony S has won an apprenticeship with our local butcher, Joe Campisi, and he is thrilled with the opportunity that this provides for a fulfilling future doing the practical work he has always wanted. As he starts his apprenticeship, first with work experience, Anthony is demonstrating willingness to learn and his skills have already drawn praise from Joe already.  This close bond that develops between supervisors and our students is reflected in most work places.  A good example of this is with Allysan C who is already being given considerable responsibility at SpecSavers as she works through a list of training items devised for her this week by her supervisor.  

Tayla M is bravely picking up the challenge of those first few nervous moments learning how to deal with customers in the front line on the counters of a PriceLine Chemist.  Brandon P is learning the intricacies of administration behind the scenes of West Hoxton Pharmacy.  Three of our girls – Kayla S, Lily H and Melissa M -  are working under close supervision at Fairfield Hospital in some quite confronting situations for which they are being well trained.  Harrison Neal is working with the vet at Rossmore whilst Akshita C is working with another vet in Camden.  Some of our students are working in the city, such as Tiara R, who is working for a solicitor in Macquarie St.

And so the many stories go on as our Year 10 students gain valuable experience and are usually given excellent evaluative comments, which are most precious for future job applications.

Well done Year 10!
