Farnborough Airport Visit

Over the last couple of weeks both year 8 and 9 students had the opportunity to visit Farnborough Airport.

The trip started with a presentation about the history of the airport, the destinations the planes fly to and also the number of jobs created by the airport. This was followed by a tour of the hangars, the lounges and terminal, where we met different employers who spoke to us in more detail about what they did and what it involved. There was a chance to look at some of the private jets and students were amazed at how much they cost to purchase and maintain. 

Our thanks to Farnborough Airport for giving our students this great opportunity!
