Over 130 Mums and Kids have just returned from the Venus Annual Summer Residential 2014 in sunny Presthaven Sands.
We arrived at the site on Monday afternoon and after a relatively smooth check in process followed by a short time familiarising ourselves with the site, happy and excited mums and kids started to relax and enjoy the amenities of the park in Welsh sunshine.
As you know from our previous blog posts, we successfully host social work student placements from Universities from around the region, including Liverpool John Moores, Liverpool Hope and Salford Universities. We also host high school student placements for their work experience modules through year 10 and have had students here from local schools such as the Hawthornes and Chesterfield. Throughout the last two weeks, we were happy to host Kaitlyn as our resident work experience student.
We've posted before about our Social Work Student Placements and how helpful they are to the work we do. Maeve recently left us after her placement and we asked her to share her thoughts and experiences with us here. We love sharing our experience and work with students and are really happy when it works out well. Tell us in the comments section what you think about student placements. Over to Maeve...
