Our Year 12 students kicked off the year listening to the career journeys of several of our past students; Ella, Mikaela and Josiah. Since leaving BHCS they have followed their passions and pursued studies and career pathways in nursing, occupational therapy and carpentry.  

Each of them spoke with confidence and enthusiasm, telling the students about opportunities they have had for travel, work placements and the variety of people they have worked alongside since leaving school. They were also able to give some great advice to our Year 12 students who are just beginning their last year of high school and starting to make similar choices to the ones our panel members made several years ago. 

“God placed gifts and talents in all of us and finding a career is using those talents every day!”

“Year 12 is not the end – it is the beginning to be the person who you want to be now.”

“Enjoy where you are! Say yes to everything and enjoy every moment and pursue every opportunity.”

Our panel members did not gloss over the hard work they put into Year 12 but they were also encouraging of our students to enjoy the memory-making moments of Year 12, and to make the most of what is offered at school in terms of friendship, advice and encouragement from both staff and other students.
