Summary
I am a Year 10 student at Loreto Grammar School with a keen interest in science and maths. I particularly enjoy learning how scientific ideas explain the world around us and how they are applied in different industries and careers.
I am keen to explore the many opportunities that science can lead to, including areas such as healthcare, research, engineering, energy and astrophysics. I would like to gain practical experience through a one-week STEM work placement during the week commencing 18 May 2026 to better understand how science is used in the workplace.
I am reliable, enthusiastic and enjoy working with others. Through sport, scouting and school activities I have developed teamwork, responsibility and a willingness to learn.
