SENIOR YEARS LOOK TO THE FUTURE

Our Annual Senior Years Expo took place on Thursday, July 13, at the Pickles St campus.

A steady stream of 300 people came through during the afternoon.

Students and their families spoke to subject leaders, sampled student work, sought careers advice and drank delicious hot beverages from the Melbourne College of Further Education.

A big thank you to the tertiary providers in attendance - Swinburne University, ACU, The University of Melbourne, RMIT and Monash University - who provided valuable information and resources for our students.

There are university guides available in the Senior Years Library for any students who missed out on the day!
