Graduation & Formal 2010
Finally a massive CONGRATULATIONS to all the students who acquired QCE points and completed their subjects and VET courses in 2010.
International Seafood & Health Conference
The students had the opportunity to network with highly respected national and international Aquaculture and Medical experts as well as parliamentarians. The Parliamentary secretary for Fisheries Forestry and Agriculture “The Hon Dr Mike Kelly” was interested in talking to the boys on their future careers and commented that Aquaculture has a very important future to help balance the demand of seafood to feed the country and the world. The medical experts main message was that by eating 2 fish meals per week, minimised the risk of depression and also assisted the brain development of unborn children by the absorption of micronutrients that seafood have.
It is fair to say the boys learnt an awful lot and had a lot of fun to boot!
Well done to Mr Joe Coco for looking after the boys and taking your VET course to new levels.
