Warilla High School Year 12 students saw the steelmaking process up close at a recent BlueScope Inside Industry Tour, run through the Educational Pathways Program.
Students walked away with a clearer picture of where engineering can take them, hearing directly from Warilla High alumni Joel Whalen and Jayden Wells, who now study engineering at the University of Wollongong while working at BlueScope as BHP cadets.

Seeing former students living that pathway made the careers feel real and within reach.

School shoes off, work boots on. 🥾

Six Peel High School students spent a day on the tools at Apollo Engineering, getting a real taste of the metal fabrication trade through the RIEP Launchpad program.

They learned to weld, built a die and finished a fire pit with their own names cut into it.

It works both ways, too. Apollo has taken on two new apprentices since getting involved, proof that a trade can open many doors.

Did you know NSW apprentices in their first and second year can claim a $100 vehicle registration rebate?

It's one of a range of financial supports available to help manage costs while building a trade career.

🔨 From plans to picnic tables 🏗️

Students from Gunnedah High School - Official Tamworth High School Peel High School spent two days on the tools at an Introduction to Construction Workshop, run by Novaskill.

They learned to use hand and power tools, read construction plans, measure up and work safely as a team. They designed and built two picnic tables for their school.

From the first measurement to the final screw, these students can now point to something and say "we built that."

Soon to be painted and out in the school grounds for everyone to enjoy.

Ayla Woolley has always loved being outside. Growing up with a fascination for nature and a passion for science, she wanted to understand the environment around her.

When the garden centre where she was working casually offered her a traineeship, she did not hesitate.

Ayla completed her Certificate III in Horticulture through TAFE NSW while working at Natures Decor Garden Centre in Pimlico. Supported by her TAFE teachers and workplace mentors throughout, she now assists with plant health, helps customers troubleshoot plant problems and works on bespoke garden designs suited to local conditions.

"I love being able to help people put together plants to create a look that they're after and also helping them understand what plants work in the area that they have," she said.

That work has earned her a nomination for Trainee of the Year at the North Coast and Mid North Coast Regional Training Awards
