Urban Synergy joined St Augustine’s Primary School in Lewisham this August for a special Black History Month careers seminar.
More than 120 young minds, aged 8 to 11, had the chance to meet these inspiring professionals:
- Nicole Onye, Finance Specialist at M&G Investments
- Colin Donaldson, Commercial Pilot
- Ethan Shakespeare-Richards, Firefighter at Battersea
From trying on firefighter gloves to learning about flight destinations and saving money, the students were buzzing with excitement.
The day was more than an assembly—it was a chance to see future career possibilities up close.
A teacher rated the event 5/5, sharing: “It’s inspiring for our students to meet real professionals and hear about the different paths they can take in life.”
Thank you to our incredible role models who made the day unforgettable!
