‘Career Carousel’ at Middlefield Community Primary School!

Published: 01 March 2024 

Last week we attended Middlefield Community Primary School in Speke for their ‘Career Carousel’ event!  

Hosted by Positive Footprints Network, the morning provided pupils with the opportunity to explore different career paths and learn about the routes into them, by asking professionals in the field. 

We attended with a handful of our colleagues from across the organisation including ground maintenance and environmental roles.  

It was a brilliant event; over 90 children got involved and spoke to us about job roles at SLH and what it means to work for a housing association.  

Our Environmental Officer, James, took along sunflower seeds and mini pots for the kids to plant. It’s never too early to encourage a love of gardening! 

Tommy and Tommy from our environmental team had the pleasure of guiding students through a morning of discovery and hands-on learning. We delved into the world of maintenance equipment, sparking curiosity amongst the children. It's all about inspiring the next generation, one experience at a time! 

We rounded off the morning with a quiz about SLH and the different roles within the organisation from our Community Services Manager, Debbie, and Employment Guidance Administrator, Laura.  

The Positive Futures Network works with schools and businesses, raising aspirations for young people by inspiring them today, for a better tomorrow. 

It was a fantastic event to be involved in, alongside a variety of local organisations and we look forward to the next one!
