TAFE NSW Open Day at Gosford

Gosford Campus hosted TAFE NSW Open Day on 18 August. Visitors were able to experience life on campus with campus and specialised tours running throughout the day.

Everyone who attended and registered received a tote bag and free coffee before having the opportunity to explore information booths; meet teachers and TAFE ambassadors; discover learner support services including counselling, disabilities and library services and unlock Hidden Art created in augmented reality by TAFE students.

The Star FM 104.5 Radio Station Street Team were on hand with biscuit decorating, prize wheel and giveaways. Local Central Coast performers entertained with live music, while a yummy free sausage sizzle was cooking for all to enjoy!
