We enjoyed learning about and listening to about a range of careers at Hillside this morning: advanced nurse, pilot and composer, archaeologist, solicitor, beauty therapist, integrated circuits design engineer, engineer in nuclear fusion, teacher and governor, IT program manager, chemistry lecturer, social-value co-ordinator in construction and director in energy/carbon reduction and sustainability consultant. So many children have been inspired from the talks this morning and have changed their future careers! Thank you so much to our wonderful community for coming and inspiring our future!
