Futures Team @ Pymble
New Futures microsite and newsletter for students
The Futures team has been working hard to create a microsite called Futures@Pymble for students to access core information on Futures learning and post school pathways. A weekly newsletter, Futures in Focus, is sent out to the students to streamline the email communication and includes updated information from universities, events and new opportunities such as our new emPower Lunch series.
Moving forward, all new information will be located on the site and a link will be attached each week in Pymble Compass.
