World of Work Programme:

On Tuesday 14th of January, the 2 Oak class commenced their engagement in the World of Work programme, in conjunction with Business in the Community Ireland (BITCI) and the Riverside Park Hotel in Enniscorthy. A presentation was given to the students by Hillary Coughlan from (BITCI) and this was followed by further information from Kelly Sheehan the HR Manager from the Riverside hotel.

There are numerous aspects to this programme the students first discuss the importance of having a job later in life. There is also a site visit to the Riverside Park hotel where they get to meet key personnel working in different parts of the hotel. The importance of sustainability in the current working environment is also explored. Another key aspect of the programme is the development of soft skills in students such as communication, teamwork, work ethic and critical thinking. The final session focuses on evaluation of the learning outcomes from the student viewpoint.

After the first informative session all students are looking forward to the visit to the Riverside Park Hotel with their Year Head Ms. Aileen Walsh later this month.
