​Career Pathways Department - T2 Wk2

This week the Year 13 students headed to Dunedin to experience the tertiary institutions open days.  Both Otago University and Otago Polytechnic were open to potential students to have a look at the various programmes they both offer.
“The Otago University and Polytech open day was a good opportunity to see what it is like being a student in Dunedin. It also gave me a good understanding of what course I want to go to next year and what halls are available.”  George Goodger Year 13

This week we have had a visit from an ex pupil Sophie Holland.  Sophie is studying towards a Bachelor of Social Services with a major in Career Counselling.  As part of her practicum Sophie will be coming to school during June to check out the Careers Department and will also be available to help year 13’s with their CV’s.  Sophie has been working in the Careers Hub at Otago Polytechnic, so has great up to date knowledge of what's required when preparing your CV for job hunting.  it’s great to see our ex pupils doing so well!
