ADF Work Experience

A couple of Defence work experience placements are coming up in August and there are still positions available. The Australian Defence Force have asked that we provide the following information to our students:

3 Combat Engineer Regiment (Mechanic & Logistics roles) - 15th - 19th August - Lavarack Barracks, Townsville

Placement focusses on the roles of Mechanics and Logistics personnel in Army.

An 'all-round' type placement that will expose students to many aspects of the Army working conditions and lifestyle.

Interested students can find further information and apply online via this link:3CER Mechanic/Logistics

4 Regiment (Artillery) - 22nd - 26th August - Lavarack Barracks, Townsville 

Placement focusses on Artillery (big guns!) and students will have an opportunity to travel to High Range to watch artillery live fire, as well as gaining great understanding of the Army lifestyle and working conditions.

Interested students can find further information and apply online via this link: 4Regt Artillery

Please note that for students outside of the Townsville area, we cannot assist with travel and accommodation, so their parent/guardian would need to be willing and able to organise these aspects.

If you would like further information about these opportunities, please don't hesitate to contact me.
