UNSW Warrane College - The Big Picture Program

The Big Picture Program

The Big Picture Program, an initiative of Warrane College, introduces high school students (Years 10 and 11) to the world of professional work and tertiary education to empower them with the knowledge, skills and ideals they need to understand what it means, and what it takes, to build successful careers and fulfilling lives.

The program aims to instil in young people a sense of direction, seeking to explore and discover potential professions in which they feel their talents can best align with their passions and dreams, in order to make a positive contribution to society.

Beyond equipping students to make wise career decisions, the program aims to cultivate in young men an awareness of the bigger picture, extending to an understanding and sense of responsibility for society and their relationships with family and friends.

Famous quotes containing the words big, picture and/or program:

    I hate England and its hopelessness. I hate [Arnold] Bennett’s resignation. Tragedy ought really to be a great big kick at misery.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    no picture is made to endure nor to live with
    but it is made to sell and sell quickly
    with usura, sin against nature,
    is thy bread ever more of stale rags
    is thy bread dry as paper,
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    In 1869 he started his work for temperance instigated by three drunken men who came to his home with a paper signed by a saloonkeeper and his patrons on which was written “For God’s sake organize a temperance society.”
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
