Hi APC Alumni!

We are looking for a range of past students to speak to the current Year 12 students as they begin the process of choosing their pathways for 2020 and onwards.

We are looking for past students to share their experiences at university, TAFE, being in the workforce, taking a gap year or completing an apprenticeship. We will be looking for students from a variety of universities and students from a range of faculties to share their experiences.

If you are available to talk to a number of small groups on Tuesday the 27th of August from 10-11am at Pickles Street, please email the Year 12 Leader, Holly Pritchard at [email protected]

We look forward to hearing from many of you!

Hello 2018 Alumni!

You will be required to speak for 5 minutes and the study camp is held in Federation Square on the 30th of January.

Thank you!

Dear APC Alumni,

Are you undertaking a university degree, a gap year, a TAFE course or an apprenticeship? Have you changed degrees or pathways?

We are looking for past students to share their post high school experience with 2018's Year 12 cohort as they begin the process of selecting their own pathways for 2019.

If you are interested in sharing your personal experience please contact the Year 12 Leader, Holly Pritchard at [email protected] or call the college on 8695 9000.

Thank you (:

Visiting French exchange students need to borrow your APC girl’s blazer.

Bonjour. This year we have 10 French 16 year olds coming on exchange for 6-8 weeks between July and September and I need to find uniforms for all those girls.
If any of you have a medium sized blazer you could lend us for a couple of months (to be returned washed and clean), I would be very grateful.
Please just drop your blazer (or your sister’s) at reception with your name and an email contact clearly attached so I know to whom to return it.
Merci
Tasha Paquier

'Term 2 opened with an explosive, highly original dance performance at the Melbourne Theatre Company’s Lawler Theatre. It was an impressive performance by our students, their passion for dance was on full display throughout the evening'

Hello class of 2016,

I am hoping to run a session for our current year 12s that allows them to find out a little more about what life is like after they finish high school. We are planning to run this on the 27th of June from 10 to 11. We will run two sessions of 20 minutes each, including some time for questions. I think it is important to have all sorts of pathways represented, so I am interested in hearing from students at all Universities, TAFEs, apprenticeship pathways and work pathways.

The things that the students would most like to hear about are:
What is day to day life like at uni, TAFE, apprenticeship, your job?
What is your course/job actually like in reality? Is it what you expected?
What are the best things about the pathway you have taken?
What things did you wish you knew 6 months ago?
How does life change once you leave school? (Moving out of home, driving, etc etc.)

If you think you could attend this date and time and are willing to speak a little about your experiences this year so far, then please send an email to me at [email protected] with what you are up to this year. Please also pass this on to any friends that you think might be interested.

I look forward to hearing from you,
Kate Merakis
