Careers Convention
On the evening of Thursday 17th March we had our first Careers Convention for two years (for obvious reasons!). The Sports Hall was packed with pupils and parents visiting the exhibition of over 40 companies, Higher Education and gap year providers. It was great to see some OCs back too – Toby Swindells (2017, Carter Jonas), Flo Saralis (eCollective Digital Ltd) and Martin Kidd (1973, Vokins Chartered Surveyors). In tandem, we had a fantastic mini-lecture programme running in the new Music Auditorium with talks from Deloitte, E&Y, BAE Systems, Raleigh International and The London Interdisciplinary School and also on subjects including a career in nursing and Software Engineering and Solution Architecture in Finance. It was wonderful to see our largest careers and HE event back; thank you so much to all the amazing exhibitors and speakers for making it happen.
Lower Sixth Networking
The new Music Auditorium was the perfect venue for a wonderful evening of networking in March. Over 70 volunteer networkers put our Lower Sixth students through their paces whilst they practised their networking skills over drinks and canapés. Advice, anecdotes and experience were shared and, after a slightly nervous start, the students soon found their networking feet and obviously thoroughly enjoyed meeting such an interesting and supportive group of parent-volunteers. Thank you to all our brilliant volunteers for putting everyone at ease and well done to the Lower Sixth for throwing themselves into the occasion.
