Career Talk

Today is the 10th of April and it is a Wednesday. We had a talk from three special guests that came to Pt England, and the team 5 block. The talk was about there careers, what they wanted to be when they were little, and what inspired them. They all took turns to talk about how they got to where they are now, and what they do now as well.

They came after morning tea to start with. The first talker was Jason Young, and he is a builder. He started talking about how he grew up around here, and how he went to our school, and how he was once sitting were we are now. He told us what his favourite subjects in school were, and favourite sports as well. He also told us about the other schools that he went to.

The next person to talk was Fiona Bakulich. She is a funeral director, and she talked about what schools she went to,what she wanted to be when She was little, and even what career her parents had. She also talked about what she does in her job, and how she works quite a lot. She told us a bit about her family, and how she loves them very much. After saying what she needed to say, she let us ask some questions about her career, and what she does. She explained that it was kinda of hard some times because she had to stay strong for the people who have had loved ones pass away.

Next up was Tanielu Tele'a. Now, you might of heard that name before, and that's because he's in the Blues rugby team. Because, yes he plays rugby, and that means that it's his career. But, he talked about again, his career, and what does, how does it, and kind of how he feels about playing rugby/his career. He even went to this school, so he was telling about how he used to listen to people talk about their careers as well, and he also said that he remembers sitting right where we are right now, in this school, and the team 5 block.

Over all, I think that this talk was so great, and very helpful. And I think that quite a lot of people in this block got inspired by some of the things that the three speakers said/explained about their careers. I differently loved hearing about what other people think about their jobs, or what they do. And, I woul d love to say thank them very much.
