Lower Sixth Networking

In the Spring Term, our Lower Sith students attended a networking evening in the Donald Brookes Auditorium.

In preparation, they had a networking workshop earlier that afternoon covering why networking is important, the skills needed and the format of the evening ahead. We had wonderful evening of networking with almost 100 volunteer networkers, including a number of OCs, who put the students through their paces whilst they practised their networking skills over drinks and canapés.

Advice, anecdotes and contacts were shared and, after a slightly nervous start, the students soon found their networking feet and obviously thoroughly enjoyed meeting such an interesting and supportive group of parent-volunteers.
