A group of our Year 9 students spent the day at TAFE, getting hands-on experience in metal fabrication and heavy diesel mechanics as part of the Career Taster Program.

From welding to working on real engines, the students were not afraid to get their hands dirty—literally! Covered in grease but full of enthusiasm, they left with newly learned skills and a clearer understanding of the exciting career pathways available in the trades.

It was a fantastic opportunity to explore future possibilities and gain practical insight into life beyond the classroom.
