World of Work Week Day 1
VATTENFALL WINDFARM AND R J MCLEOD
Today we were so excited to welcome representatives from Vattenfall Windfarms and RJ McLeod who took time out of their day at South Kyle Windfarm to dial in to talk to our pupils about STEM careers and local opportunities.
Carol Kane from Vattenfall spoke to pupils about what the windfarm does and why it is an important part of our community. We listened carefully to her presentation which included information about sustainability and renewables, as well as different career roles available at the windfarm.
Ian Sloan, one of the Project Managers, spoke to pupils about his own time at New Cumnock Primary School (the former Castle Building). He told pupils about his job on the windfarm and the subjects he enjoyed at school.
Finally, Rosie Gillan from RJ McLeod spoke about opportunities for girls in STEM careers. She encouraged our girls to take part in science and maths at school, and talked about her job at the windfarm.
We are so excited to take up their offer of a visit to the windfarm in the near future to get real hands on experience at the site!
Thank you to all involved including Tamara Campbell and Christina McKitrick who were integral in setting up this opportunity for our pupils!
