Tuesday 19 April 2016 Southill Area Centre Day 1 #

I went to Southill area centre and did an art project with the kids in the after school programme.  Our job was to make sure that the kids drew a line across the page and that they drew their house on top of the line so they could all be placed next to each other.  The outcome was good because the kids enjoyed themselves and had fun drawing their houses.  Some of the kids that were there found it childish and the others enjoyed it.  Drawing the houses worked on the day but the kids that found it childish started to lose interest but the others enjoyed it.

                                    Work Experience 




I went to the West End youth center for my work experience.  I went there for two weeks.  Ken was the name of my supervisor he told me what had to be done and what jobs had to be done. He checked on me often to make sure i was doing the job properly.  I had to watch the kids and make sure that they stayed where they were supposed to.  I also had to organise  games so they would stay in the room and not to run off.  I enjoyed it because it was a good chance to work with younger kids.  The most difficult task was to try to get the kids to listen to me but after a few days they started to. I wouldn't like to do this as a career because it seems like a difficult job.  To start this career you could get an apprenticeship and go to college while working part time.
