Careers through the years
'Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart as if working for the Lord not for men.'
Colossians 3:23
Welcome to the Carinya Careers Department Site.
Students are encouraged to 'own' their future by taking time throughout school to investigate their post-school plan. Keep in mind students are not trying to decide on their entire career, just to work out their next step.
Feel free to contact Mrs Chris Davis by phone or email if you need further information.
