Royal Navy Careers Talk

October 7, 2024 by jessicarichardson

Year 5 and Year 6 children were visited by the Royal Navy Attract Team who delivered an inspirational careers talk.

Pupils learned about the different job roles in The Royal Navy and the skills needed to carry out such jobs.

The afternoon session then enabled children to take part in a range of team building and leadership activities.

Thank you to the Royal Navy personnel who delivered the sessions for us.
