Earlier this term our Year 10 Ӱ̳Senior Secondary College student Seth Anderson participated in two Structured Workplace Learning Placements at Cavalier Homes Albury Ӱ̳in Wodonga. Supported by the WSSC Careers team member Sloane Hubner including meeting with Seth’s parents at Parent Teacher night Seth took a keen interest in engaging in work placements trying his hand at Construction as this aligned with Seth’s hands on learning prowess.
Working with Shane Crispin Head Start SBAT Coordinator, Tracey Jacobs from MEGT he has since been able to become part of the professional Cavalier Homes Albury Ӱ̳ via a Head Start School Based Apprenticeship after the success of his placements where Seth displayed great skills and fitted into the team so well.
Seth is currently working one day a week with Cavalier; said he was loving the work and the team. Murray Mallee Training Company is where Seth is going to be Studying the Certificate III in Carpentry qualification very soon. His onsite work supervisor Ben Paddles said Its great for young people to get experience in the industry and see them get a Head start which he wished was around when he was at school. Tracey Jacobs from MEGT Apprenticeships said It is fantastic to work with Ӱ̳Senior Secondary College and the Head Start program as it’s an awesome way to introduce the next generation to great pathways.
Congratulations Seth on using your initiative utilising your personal connections in taking on this pathway and we thank Lyle, Ben , the Cavalier Homes Albury Ӱ̳ team, MEGT for providing these exciting opportunities for our young people.
