Waldegrave School End of Spring Magazine 2023

As part of careers week, all Year 7s were invited to participate in a Careers Day workshop, hosted by Mr Parker and Mr Bannister. Students arrived at school in aspirational careers outfits, dressing up as their future dream job. From nurses and paramedics to artists and a variety of professional sports players, we were delighted to see such a diverse range of professions. The sessions included a range of group activities, working in smaller groups and as a whole class. One of the favourites was the ‘Pictionary’ inspired workshop whereby students in groups of six were tasked to illustrate themselves in their future dream job whilst their peers had to guess correctly which career has been drawn. Another fun activity was the alphabet challenge, testing the students’ knowledge of career options as they went down the alphabet listing different job titles; a few favourites were A for Astronaut, F for Footballer and O for Optician. Both Mr Bannister and Mr Parker were very impressed by the enthusiasm and career knowledge of our students as well as the range of professions showcased by the students’ choice of attire.
