Over the past few weeks there have been many opportunities for students regarding secondary school programs such as the AARO tour that Grade 12 and 11 students attended.

This was an expo designed to give students the opportunity to speak with various colleges and universities. The Grade 10 CEO classes also attended a session Explore all your Options that was hosted at the Alberton Holland College Campus.

Over the next several weeks there are many universities visiting Westisle to speak to our students.

This is an excellent opportunity for Grade 12s to meet with representatives and ask any questions they may have about their program of interest.
