Career's Afternoon 2023-2024

This year, our Career's Event was bigger and better than last year! In total, we had 27 opportunities available for our pupils to choose from. The 27 options included local business volunteers, class teachers with hidden talents, as well as our emergency services.

The children were immersed in an afternoon of fun, where they learnt about the skills and pathways they needed to take in order to follow their dreams. The volunteers had then pre-planned activities for the children to complete. These tasks were hands-on experiences and gave every child a real life situation to deal with. For example, our PCSO created a crime scene for the children to solve, the project manager set the task of the children building a business plan for a new burger restaurant, the teachers engaged in a learning walk, the postmasters delivered important mail across the school and the first-aiders are now able to perform CPR in an emergency! After the activity, children could ask all of their important questions that they had planned the day before, to ensure they fully understood the roles of the career options they'd chosen!

It was a fantastic afternoon, and we appreciate every single person that gave up their afternoon!
