The main activity of the morning was a career talk. For the talk the girls were divided into three groups for focused guidance. The first group, Career Choices and Academic Pathways, helped them identify their interests and think through subjects, courses and university or college pathways.
The second, Skills for the Future, covered communication, digital literacy, creativity and critical thinking, and the skills that employers and universities look for.
The third, Leadership, Confidence and Personal Development, focused on self-confidence, responsible citizenship, goal setting and overcoming barriers.
