World Skills Trip
Our 6th Years took a trip to the World Skills event in the RDS last week
From trades to tech, and everything in between, students got the chance to explore a huge variety of career and post-school options. They met with employers, tried out hands-on demos, and picked up loads of inspiration for the future.
Plenty of ideas now brewing for life after school.

There was a vast array of products on sale throughout the day including cookies, hot chocolate kits, candles and wax melts, tie dye socks and Christmas hampers. Thank you to John and all the staff in The Canopy for their support. Well done to all the students and their teacher Ms. Tighe.

Despite the coldness of the water, the students embraced the challenge, finding joy in every wave they conquered. To conclude the day, a treat from Mama Johnson's provided the perfect ending to a day filled with laughter, excitement, and the thrill of the sea. This surfing adventure will undoubtedly be a cherished memory for these students, serving as a testament to the incredible experiences waiting to be discovered along the coastlines with Rebelle Surf School.
