Careers Panel Evening Inspires Students' Futures

On 13 June, Student Futures hosted its Careers Panel Evening, a pivotal event designed to aid student career exploration. Seventy speakers from various industries, including engineering, human resources, property, IT, commerce, filmmaking, and allied health, shared their journey’s and expertise. The speakers, many of whom are former students, were divided into small groups and stationed in classrooms around Macky Quad.

The event featured three 25-minute sessions from 6:30 to 8:00 pm, allowing students from Years 10 to 13 and their families to attend presentations and engage in discussions. The flexible format encouraged speakers to share their insights and experiences in their own unique ways. Some provided a more formal presentation with question opportunities at the end, while others opted for one-on-one conversations to build relationships.

This voluntary event is a key component of Saint Kentigern’s Student Futures initiative, helping students shape their academic and career pathways. By connecting with alumni and industry professionals, students gain valuable perspectives on their future endeavours. Thank you to all of the alumni who took time out of their evenings to share with our students.
