However, due to the current lockdown, this information will now be presented via a recorded video lecture – details will be made available to students on how to view this, lecture, which is compulsory viewing for students completing their Year 12 this year.

The presentation will cover VTAC applications (for further education in 2022) with the students being shown by Ms Vivian Sipsas (Senior Careers Counsellor) how to complete their application, as well as what things to consider when choosing their possible pathway.
