These breakfasts occur each Tuesday in June from 7.15am - 8.25am at the Boarding House dining room annexe.
Year 12 students may attend as many breakfasts as they wish providing they have an interest in the career areas being offered on that day. To register for a breakfast, they need to complete the flyer emailed to them and return it to me. Please note that there will be a limit on numbers for each breakfast.
