We are offering personalised, one-on-one workshops across both campuses providing individual sessions designed to build confidence, develop skills and support students in thinking about the future. Workshop topics include:
- Thinking About the Future: Let’s Talk Careers
- Resume Writing and Job Ready Skills
- Transitioning to VCE
Students are encouraged to take advantage of this valuable support to help them feel prepared and confident about their future pathways.
Year 7 and 8
The Careers Team is now regularly based at the Junior Campus every Tuesday and Thursday, providing ongoing support and guidance for students.
Year 9
We recently completed the Morrisby Interviews with our Year 9 students, and it was fantastic to see them engaging with their future pathways. Our accredited Morrisby careers counsellors worked one-on-one with students to unpack their personalised profiles, helping them better understand their interests, strengths, and potential career directions.
The feedback from the counsellors was overwhelmingly positive. Many shared comments such as:
“The students were lovely as always – I enjoy working with Mount Waverley Secondary College.”
“Great students who were eager to explore and have meaningful conversations.”
“Wonderful students who were truly engaged in the process.”
It was a valuable experience that encouraged students to think more deeply about their strengths and the many possibilities ahead of them.
Year 10
Work Experience placements will take place during the week of 22–26 June 2026, and Year 10 students are encouraged explore possible placements as soon as possible.
Year 11
Careers have a wide range of resources for students, including a regular newsletter packed full of up-to-date information.
Year 12
The Careers team is available to help students plan their 2027 destination and beyond. This could be apprenticeships, gap years, employment, or for many students, university. Book an appointment.
