Working on Water Program
This year will be the first time the successful Year 9/10 Working on Water Program run by the Tasmanian Seafood Industry Council (TSIC) will be offered for college-level students.
Rosny College is fortunate to have developed a partnership with the TSIC to be the first college in Tasmania to attend a Year 11/12 Working on Water Program sponsored by government and corporate entities, including the Department of Natural Resources and Environment, Seafood & Maritime Training, Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, Tassal, Petuna, Tasmanian Rock Lobster Fishermen’s Association.
The Rosny College Year 11/12 Working on Water Program is aimed at students who wish to receive insight and exposure to the seafood industry through experienced industry members (fishers, aquaculture, processors, and tourism). Rosny College students studying the available learning pathways of Marine Adventure Studies-Industry and Marine Adventure Studies-Tertiary, along with Marine Biology, Outdoor Education and Maritime Operations students, have been selected to receive the first round of offers towards attending this excellent two-day learning opportunity.
The Rosny College Year 11/12 Working on Water Program will enable Rosny College students to see firsthand what opportunities there are in the Seafood Industry, giving them a hands-on experience and firsthand contact with industry leaders.
There are several key messages the TSIC and its partners hope will come out of this program.
Have a passion for what you do. Build your skill sets and utilise your transferable skills. Make yourself known/put yourself out there.
The program runs for two days on October 24th and October 25th 2022. Notices home this week for students.
