Shape Your Destiny - Careers Week
This May, Year 10 students explored potential careers with a new immersive week of highenergy experiences in Melbourne and online.
After Morrisby Testing, enabling students to better understand their individual strengths, interest and personality, Year 10 participated in the Careers Immersive; Shape Your Destiny, along with bonus DJ, helped students clarify their passions, values and talents, helping them narrow down their choices for exploration across Careers Week.
Following analysis of global employment data, there was a particular focus on entrepreneurship and the startup ecosystem. Year 10 travelled to Luna in Richmond where they met with a range of female entrepreneurs who introduced them to a solution-driven approach to thinking and allowed them to experience problem solving in the workplace with a range of collaborative real-world challenges. Students visited thriving businesses like Mecca Cosmetica, Hunted + Gathered and Rome2rio, and chose from over 40 industry task briefs in a virtual work experience opportunity that enabled them to experience real tasks from the occupations that interested them. It was wonderful to see the students so engaged, asking thoughtful and challenging questions as they considered their futures throughout the week.
