This week Mr Nowakowski launched ‘Engage’ at Whetley Academy. Each week a different adult will be visiting our school to talk about their job. Do you have a particular job you would like to do when you are older? Post your ideas below and perhaps we can arrange for a visit from someone with experience in that profession. This week we were visited by lifeguards, watch the video below if you want to find out more.
