The volunteers who gave up their time to work with our young people comprised of former pupils, former members of staff and representatives from the local community.
A big thank you to Miss Sharkey and her group of S6 helpers who ensured the smooth running of the event.
Our young people will have gained a great deal from the experience and will hopefully have many successful interviews in the future! |
