Local Career Events in the Shire There are upcoming events in the Shire for specific work areas – more information to come. Inaburra is holding its own World of Work Day on May 27th and we have the likes of Macquarie University, Western Sydney Uni, Wollongong Uni, the Defence Force, Master Builders, ACBC business college, Bedford business college, The Bridge Year 13 program, The Hotel School, and an Overseas college agency amongst others coming to talk just to our Year 10 and 12 students. We appreciate their support as it is difficult to get some other organisations to come out to an individual school event.
