Moving On Day

On Tuesday the 4th July my college ran 'Moving On Day'- a day where lessons are cancelled and students are given the opportunity to go to talks and exhibitions about their chosen career path; where that be work, apprenticeships or university.  It was fun, useful- but it all depends on what grades I get!

First, I went to the Exhibition in the sports halls were I spoke to different universities such as Southampton and Oxford Brookes about Medicine and Nursing (which I've been looking a lot into lately). I also got a bunch of leaflets on gap year volunteering opportunities in South America, Africa and Asia such as conservation trips and teaching English to students. My friend and I would especially love to g to a Spanish speaking country to develop our Spanish.

I also attended 4  talks..

Adult Nursing: Hearts and minds matter - Talk from nurses at the University of Southampton on the 6 C's and what their university has to
offer. Also got to visit their simulation van with their new technology in learning with a mannequin to treat.

Healthcare: Routes into Healthcare - This talk from the University of Bristol spoke about Nursing, Social Work, Midwifery and Bristol applications.

HE: UCAS Talk - Talk from an admissions member at the University of Surrey on personal statements, types of offers (conditional/unconditional) and advice..etc.

Healthcare: Alternatives to Medicine (Healthcare Sciences) - Talk from Southampton Audiologist about Audiology, Respiratory Therapy, Cardio Physiology and what they consist of.
