This program is designed to gain a better understanding of what the council does on a day to day basis, as well as finding out about yourself. It helped me to decide what I do and don\u2019t want to do in the future and experience what it was like to work in an office. For three days, students had the opportunity to go behind-the-scenes and see what the work life was like in a government run organisation. Following a member of council around and seeing what a typical day in the office was like; we learnt about topics of interest that the council offers such as Building, Sport and Recreation and Environmental Health. This meant that I was lucky enough to experience being on a building site.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-25807\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wssc.vic.edu.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/WorkInspirationsProg2016-1024x519.jpg\" alt=\"WorkInspirationsProg2016\" width=\"960\" height=\"486\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Photo: Wodonga City Council<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This program allowed the participants to learn about the structure of the council and what they do every day for the society whilst providing a fun and enjoyable experience. During the time at the council we got to meet lovely individuals from the council and other local high schools. The biggest thing that I learnt from this experience is that if you start in one job, it\u2019s not necessarily what you will end up doing forever.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anthea Waldegrave-Knight<\/strong><br \/>\n<em><strong> Year 10 Student<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row] Work Inspirations is a three-day alternative to work experience offered to students by the Wodonga City Council.
