“As students enter high school next year, they’ll soon need to decide on their vocational paths,” said Selepe.
“Growing up, we were only introduced to a few job fields; we want today’s students to see more possibilities.”
Selepe noted strong engagement, particularly with the nurses and police representatives and encouraged students to explore their interests further.
“It’s important for students to hear from professionals in the field and to strive for excellence, especially in subjects like math, which opens doors to fields like medicine.
