Beddow Tree helps Hastings High school with green careers day

Beddow Tree are pleased that we were able to work with Hastings High School (Burbage, Leicestershire) helping them with their green careers day.

The event ‘what’s my job?’ was an activity session attended by Mike Beddow, starting with students trying to guess our industry/job. We prepared a short presentation and then students had the opportunity to ask up to 20 questions with the aim of guessing the role/industry.

We then used this an an opportunity to talk about our industry, making the session informative and at the same time raising awareness of being a tree surgeon. We also saw this an an opportunity to attract new people into the industry in later years.

 

Many thanks to Hastings High School for letting Beddow Tree be part of their Green Careers Day.

Dear Mike,

On behalf of Hasting High School, I would like to express our sincere thanks to you for the time you have given us yesterday to deliver ‘What’s my job?’  to our year 9 students.  Your commitment, passion and enthusiasm for your careers has had a significant impact on our students.

Your contribution today forms part of our wider careers strategy, through which we are aiming to ensure that our students move on from Hastings High School as successful and confident young adults.  You have helped us boost our events around STEM, British Science Week and our environmental interest.

We know that the students found the event inspiring and we intend to get some feedback from the students – I will share any specific feedback or questions I receive about your career.  If you have any feedback you wish to share with us, it will help us to shape our future events.

Great service and they even sorted out the planning permission I needed to fell these particular trees which was a real bonus.

Guys who came to do the work were polite, hard working and cleaned up everything at the end. Very happy.
