Year 10 students had a great time visiting the Stade de France and sightseeing in Central Paris.
Yr 10 Work Experience
Our Year 10 students took part in work experience last week, 17th – 21st March. The students were encouraged to find their own placements to fit with their individual career ideas or activities they enjoy. There was a wide range of placements including Engineering, Education and Pre School, Farming, Animal Care, Construction, Office based, Hairdressing, Retail and many more.
These photos show some of the amazing opportunities they had whilst on placement.
A big thank you to all of the employers who supported us with our work experience programme.
