Mrs George has been working very hard to source placements for our Year 10's in preparation for their upcoming Work Experience Week at the end of Term 2. There are also a number of students who had advised they will be sourcing their own placements. Self-sourcing students should contact Mrs George by the end of Week 8 to confirm their placements. Mrs George will be in touch with all other students over the next couple of weeks, and early Term 2, to confirm placements for all Year 10 students.

The College will be hosting it's annual Careers Expo on Thursday 8th June this year, combined with information sessions on our Junior & Senior Pathways for students & parents/carers. This forum is perfect for those keen to learn more about our Year 10-12 subjects. Invitations and further details will be available next term. We are still adding businesses to this Careers Expo so if you, your family, or friends have organisations that would be interested in hosting a free stall during the event, they can register to our Business Network via https://forms.office.com/r/dtV2yPCfUN

A number of opportunities are opening up from local businesses looking for students to join them across a number of industries. Students are encouraged to keep an eye on our website www.ripleyvalleystatesecondarycollegecareers.com for any positions that may currently be available or that may become available throughout the year. I'd also encourage students to make an appointment with Mrs George in the library if they wish to discuss any opportunities of interest.

We are organising a number of other events for our students to attend this semester. These will help prepare them for work placements or their preferred industry pathways.

A list of events with available spaces are as follows. 

There will be more events available throughout the year.

If your student is interested in pursuing one or more of the above, please encourage them to contact Mr Gerchow. They can register their interest ahead of the circulation of permission notes.
