Honestly - for year 10 there are not that many businesses that will have any specific work they can offer you as most of what they do is pretty skill specific and you don't yet have those skills. Some companies might put on a project you can work on but it will only be like being in school but working in an office.

Why not ring around and see if there are any computer shops or mobile phone repair places which can accommodate you for a week? You might have the opportunity to do simple fixes and get some hands on technology experience.
