Year 7 students learn about a career in medicine
18 girls from Year 7 recently participated in a Young Doctors Workshop.
Here is some feedback from the participants:
The day was perfect. I loved using the equipment and learning new things. What would be even better is if we could have more workshops like this.
Nabia 7SI loved everything about the day. It was just spectacular! It was a great experience and has helped me to understand much more about becoming a doctor.
Amud 7SI learnt so many new things, long words, how to deal with patients, about vision, hearing, radiology and more.
Alexandra 7WI really enjoyed interacting with other students and using real doctor’s equipment, like the tuning fork, eye torch and reflex hammer. Tom was very interactive and very helpful, answering all of our questions.
Aini 7WIt was great to be given booklets full of information. I learnt so many things in one day. We really should have more days like this.
Ying 7FI enjoyed learning about Socrates, radiology and how to talk to patients correctly. It was also fun testing each other with the equipment. On day I would like to go to a real hospital to see how to do x rays.
Tunmise 7CI really enjoyed the day and it helped me to decide that I really do want to be a doctor. I learnt about the brain, bones and much more.
Zalyka 7CI loved everything about the day. My idea for an improvement is to do it all again!
Faiza 7HI learnt all about cerebral palsy and about the symptoms for Parkinson’s disease. What would have made the day even better is if I had learnt how to use an oscilloscope.
Naimah 7FI really enjoyed all of the practical activities. I learnt that I don’t have very good reflexes, but I do have very good hearing!
