We are very lucky here at SOHS to have many liaisons come in to speak with our students about different career and study pathways.

These are fantastic opportunities for students to find out more about a career they are interested in, or an opportunity for a student who does not know what they want to do to find out more about a potential pathway - even if all they learn is that it is not the career for them then it is still helpful.
