On Monday 7th October the winning group from the LionHeart Enterprise challenge day held at Plashet in June travelled across London to arrive in foggy Wembley to take part in the Regional Final held at the national football stadium.

The day was challenging from the start - as soon as we arrived we were sorted out into our job roles and given the challenge in the opening ceremony!

Year 8 Future Options Day

The Year 8 had a 'Future Options Day' on Wednesday 10th July 2013,  This involved an Actorshop drama presentation, meeting an Employer from Lee Tunnell or The Foriegn and Commonwealth Office, a Further Education provider, either NewVic or the London Academy of Excellence and a University, either Gonville and Caius College Cambridge, University College London or East London University.....

The students have rated the day overwhelmingly positive, and many of them have felt that it has made them start to think about what they would like their career paths to be...




"I found the NEWVIC lady Dionne the most helpful as she explained what we will do after school" - Year 8 Student




"I now know lots more about GCSE, options, colleges and University" Year 8 Student







  

"I found out how to get prepared for the GCSE's from some students that were once in Plashet School" - Year 8 Student

"I found it very helpful and inspirational that a lady from Cambridge University came in and talked about University - one of the best universities in the world!

" - Year 8 student 

  





The Employers, Colleges and Universities were also equally impressed with the students, commenting on how focussed, driven and motivated they were!  Well Done Year 8!!
