A mural has been recently installed in the P&F Careers Centre which captures Newington College’s Careers philosophy and demonstrates the attributes that students will need to lead enjoyable, fulfilling and successful careers in the 21st Century.

Boys should aim to visit the P&F Careers Centre (located directly above the Cafeteria in the Rae Centre) at recess, lunch or during free periods to reflect on the wall mural and also to read the vast array of brochures and flyers from different universities, colleges and TAFE organisations available. In addition, Years 11 and 12 boys who have not done so already, should aim to book a meeting with the Head of Careers (Mr Simon Pennington) by emailing spennington@newington.nsw.edu.au and asking to discuss career options.

A conversation with Mr Pennington will focus on the four main ideas presented in the Careers Wall Mural and should help boys choose a career that they like, a career they are good at, a career that the world needs and a career that they can be paid well in.

In addition, boys in Years 10, 11 and 12 and their parents are encouraged to attend the P&F Careers Expo, ONU Careers Advice Evening and Tertiary Options Seminar on Thursday, 11 June at school from 5:45 PM until 8:00 PM. Please see the attached flyer for the details.

Current parents who are interested in volunteering as a presenter for the ONU Careers Advice Evening, please register here. If you have any questions or queries, please email spennington@newington.nsw.edu.au.
