Subject selection interviews will be happening mid August for yr 9, 10, 11 students. Year 12 students are required by VTAC (Victorian Tertiary Admissions Centre) to register their course preferences before Friday 30th September 2011. To support this process, Deakin University will be holding a presentation to our Yr 12 students about how to access the Special Entry Access Scheme, on August 9 from 2pm. Parents and friends are most welcome to attend this presentation.
(Please click the VTAC link on this blog page to direct you to VTAC and all the dates for timely registrations.)
In preparation for the selection process, tertiary institutions offer OPEN DAYS to showcase their campuses and available pathways, and these are attached as a link on the blog page.Students in Yr 10,11,12 are encouraged to attend Open Days.
A reminder the Career Newsletter is added fortnightly and Career News 9 is the new addition today. This newsletter has valuable information about upcoming events at the various tertiary institutions around Melbourne and surrounding rural areas. Please have a look.
Thanks to Mrs Carson who has received the following information for our Yr 12 students, you need to be in it to win it, so go for it:
