This is a one-day event for Nelson Tasman high school students showcasing vocational pathways in the key industries that drive the Nelson Tasman economy – mainly ‘learn while you earn’ roles (or study local and then work). There will 30 business / industry ‘exhibitors’ and over 200 students (mainly senior students, year 11 – 13).
There will be a range of strategically important sectors including construction and infrastructure, primary industries, hospitality, aquaculture and more……
Students will have the opportunity to rotate around the different businesses from the region to hear about the work they do and learn about the various pathways available to enter that industry. Each business will have an interactive element to engage students and stimulate conversation.
There will be a guest speaker, competitions, prizes, food, lunchtime live music, rotations around stands as a group and some free roaming time also.
