Park Hill Government School hosts Career Fair

Students of the Park Hill Government School were exposed to a number of career opportunities when the school hosted its Career Day.

The event held at the school on Friday May 31,2024 gave students the opportunity to dress in the attire of their chosen profession. Professionals in the community also participated in the event to share information about their respective careers, and provide an opportunity for the students to learn about different career paths.

Senior teacher, and chair of the school’s education committee, Sally-Ann Marks said the career day was held as part of their activities to mark Child’s Month.

The event was also geared at sensitizing the children and guiding them to choose their career paths at an early age, she added. The teacher noted as well that the event exposed the children to non-traditional careers, and the presentations from professionals in the community helped to convince the students that there are many career paths from which to choose.

Marks said the intention is for the school to host career days as often as possible to expose and introduce the students to different career paths. (API)
