Student Achievements
FLORENCE P, 10FCO I was invited to speak at the Houses of Parliament representing the Sea Cadets Corps, to discuss the role of Youth Workers and Volunteers with the aim to help build a picture of what we see this field of work looking like in the future. I delivered a five minute speech sharing my opinions and personal experiences of volunteers in the Sea Cadet Corps and the way they have helped shape the person I am today. In my speech, I also
talked about how fundamental volunteers are in the development of young people and the impact they can have to change lives. I am grateful for this opportunity because it has given me so many new skills and it really helped improve my confidence, especially around public speaking, which I have been very nervous about doing in the past. Using the skills I have gained, I am looking forward to hopefully doing more public speaking in the future!
ROSIE R & LUCY L, 9PIR
Well done to pupils, Rosie R and Lucy L for their volunteering with charity, Skinners’ Almshouse, last term as part of their Duke of Edinburgh challenge. They made weekly visits to Percy Bilton Court, a care home in Hounslow during the Autumn Term, these culminated in the students
running a festive flower arranging workshop in December. The residents really enjoyed the visits with Lucy and Rosie and the pupils have been invited back to run another event for Easter. Well done!
