1) There is a great opportunity for would-be journalists to go to a launch party of "a new online youth magazine that offers paid six month internships and unpaid voluntary work for those still in full time education. [You can queue up] for their launch party which will be a chance to meet the young journalists who are currently working on the magazine and an opportunity to make contacts and start working on a voluntary basis for them initially, but which could lead to a paid internship." (Quote from an email from Katie Thoburn). Go to their website to find out more about their launch party on Wednesday or on getting work experience:

2) There may be other opportunities to mentor if you are interested, so mention it to me, but the current one is that St Bernadette's school needs 20 male mentors for a group of Y10 boys. Here are some of the bullet points I was sent:
> Two meetings per term up until Easter between the students, starting with one in JULY 14
> - To help focus the meetings St Bernadette would prepare a mentoring Google form to help guide discussions.
> - Subject to guidance on e-safety there will be a social media connection between students.
> - The students will be divided into two broad groups those that need extra support in Literacy based subjects and those that need support in Numeracy based subjects.
> - Wednesday at 2.30 is the most likely time slot to be used
> - Meetings would take place at St. Brendan's.
