Careers & Subject Selection 2025

---

We are entering the season where Year 9-13 students need to consider their current subject options, what they want to study in 2025, what they might want to do as a career, but ultimately, who do they want to be as a person.

When considering the option subjects that they choose at the College we often encourage the students to consider subjects that;

• challenge them academically 

• challenge their current skill set,

• develop their creativity, and 

• pique their interest.

We will sit down with every student in years 9-13 and ask them about potential career options. We always coach them through their subject choices, ensuring that they have the widest possibilities to get into the courses that they want to study in subsequent years.
