👷‍♀️💪 GO GIRLS! 💪👷‍♀️

Today, a group of our Year 10–12 students had the opportunity to attend the NAWIC (National Association of Women in Construction) event — and what an incredible experience it was!

Our students gained valuable insight into the construction industry, heard from women working across the sector and, most importantly, got hands-on experience that helped bring the industry to life. 🔨🏗️

Opportunities like this give our students the chance to explore pathways, build confidence and see the many possibilities available to them beyond the classroom.

A huge thank you to National Association of Women in Construction -NAWIC for providing such an informative and empowering experience for our students!

👷‍♀️🔨 💪✨
