Trio of budding business brains up for the challenge
A trio of pupils from Cathkin High have an exciting summer planned after they won a place on a prestigious initiative,
Fifth year pupils Lewise Hart-Bain, Robbie Kerr and Zoe Yueng will take part in an Inspiring Enterprise Challenge run by South Lanarkshire Council.
With only 16 students from the 17 secondary schools in the county gaining a place it was a major honour for the three, who were all nominated by their administration teacher, Ms Buchanan.
The two week initiative will involve team building challenges and visits to established businesses to build on enterprising skills.
Pupils will engage in challenges and tasks within different business situations and work on their communication, interpersonal skills and problem solving skills.
Lewise said:“I was surprised and honoured to be chosen for this challenge.”
Robbie was also thrilled, saying:“I am really looking forward to the opportunity and everything it brings.”
Zoe added:“This will be an amazing opportunity and I am looking forward to all of the team building exercises.”
Ms Buchanan was very impressed with all three pupils’work ethic and approach to the challenge.
She said:“We are thrilled that the three pupils were chosen for the challenge and I think all of them will benefit greatly from the two week long course.”
