All the time in the world...

If you are anything like me, it is easy to feel conflicted as we head into another year of work and study. On the one hand we have all the time in the world for this year’s big plans. On the other, time feels fleeting and already slipping by. For those thinking about their future, this is a critical time of year. Our young people have plenty of time to investigate career and pathway options, change subjects or courses, seek valuable experiences, or simply dream of the possibilities. On the one hand, our young people have all the time in the world to do this now, so it can feel less rushed, less pressured and more possible. On the other, it is already time to think ahead and take steps where necessary.

As always, please do not hesitate to reach out if you or your child would like to meet and discuss any work, subject or career related issues. I am available during the school term on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday between 8.00am and 4.00pm. To make an appointment please visit my booking calendar or contact me by email at awright@calvin.tas.edu.au. Students may make an appointment during school time as appropriate.
