Our trees started small & weak, but stand strong & tall today!

Advice from a Tree 🌳
Stand tall and proud
Sink your roots into the Earth
Be content with your natural beauty
Go out on a limb
Drink plenty of water
Think long term
Enjoy the view!

It’s always great to hear from recent graduates - Thanks to JJ I was able to learn construction & it became a passion for me. I am now framing houses for @morrison_homes & get to learn even more. I wouldn't have been doing Construction if it weren't for JJ & Mr C! #yycbedu

[JackJamesHighSchool @JackJamesHS]

A huge shoutout to @CGYFireFighters for making a very special graduation day on June 29 even more special for our student Zoey! She was so filled with joy to be celebrated & escorted to grad by you. #wearecbe #yycbedu
