This term, hundreds of Year 10, 11 and 12 students from across our 10 campuses came together for our annual Careers Expo - and wow, what a day it was!

With more than 40 exhibitors on the floor at our Deception Bay campus, our young people had the chance to:

- try a trade
- explore apprenticeships and traineeships
- discover industries they never knew existed
- find out how to get a head start on their dream career
- connect with real employers with real opportunities

The energy in the room was incredible.

Seeing our young people light up when they found something that excited them - well, that's exactly why we do this.

A huge thank you to every single organisation that came along and shared their time, knowledge and opportunities with our students.

And to our young people - your future is bright. We can't wait to see where you go.

At Arethusa College, every campus has a dedicated Pathways team to help our young people turn what they love into where where they want to go.
