Fernie Secondary School

Discover Trades is a one-day program for grade 9 students.  It is hosted annually by the College of the Rockies and takes place in the spring.  This program gives students the opportunity to participate in welding, electrical and carpentry workshops.  Students also meet local employers, college instructors, and have a chance to explore the campus at the College of the Rockies.  This is an excellent first step for students interested in Youth Work in Trades or Youth Train in Trades programs in their senior years of high school.  If you are interested in participating in this event, reach out to the School Counsellor at fss.counselling@sd5.bc.ca.
