Our Guidance Counsellors provide educational and
personal counselling and vocational career guidance. In senior cycle all
students have a weekly Career Guidance class. Each student sits an aptitude
test and has an interview with a counsellor to discuss further education and
career plans. Parents are invited to participate in this interview. A Career’s
night and mock interviews are held each year.
Careers Night 2010 -2011
The HFCS Annual Careers Night took place during October 2010 and was a
great success. Senior Cycle students were able to meet representatives
from over 60 career categories and to discuss all aspects of the
different careers and options available to them. This event allowed
students to develop a deeper insight into a wide variety of careers, to
meet individuals who work in these areas and to learn more about the
choices available. Mock interviews in various careers were held for
Senior Cycle students in early November.
HFCS wishes to thank all those who participated in both the Careers
Night and the Mock Interviews. Special thanks are due to all the
careers representatives and also the individuals conducting the mock
interviews. Their continuing support is very much appreciated. Also,
the school's Career Guidance teachers, Ms.C. Prendergast, Ms. K.
O'Connell and Ms. P. Kiely are thanked for their great work in
organising these very successful events. Below are a number of
photographs from the Careers Night.
