The Winstanley School | Girls SHINE Event

On the anniversary of 100 years of female suffrage in the UK and as part of our commitment to widening horizons and enabling excellence, we welcomed 13 professional women to our year 10 and 11 aspirational morning last week. The morning started with year seven girls singing the song they prepared for Braunstone Baptist Church concert. This was followed by a key note speech from Rachel Curtis Bowen, Chief Customer Officer at Cambridgeshire Bank.

The women then workshops with the girls. These workshops allowed the girls to quiz the women as to their chosen career and to ask questions and seek advice for their own futures. There was a lively question and answer session and after break  Teesha sang for us followed by more workshops. The morning ended with our prefects thanking the women for their time. Well done and keep on SHINING!
