Get Ready to work Day
5LH & 5JB took part in the Get Work Ready day being held between Marriotts and Lonsdale school. It was a huge success seeing different companies and volunteers coming in to do different work based activities with the students. Groups were interviewed for potential jobs, worked in teams to create parachutes to stop eggs cracking when dropped from a 2nd storey balcony, learnt how to sell products and create sales pitches and they learnt how to wire a plug.
Many different skills have been developed from resiliency to communication, teamwork and generally just being outside their comfort zones. Students from Lonsdale showed how confident they were in getting stuck in and were an asset to the school.
