Work Experience> Day 2,3,4 & 5 :)

Day 2 of work experience- when i arrived at work i was told what i would be doing. First off all i had to go and talk to one of the residents, Carmel , i brought her to the restaurant and we had a cup of tea and biscuits, we talked for about a half hour. After i went to the office where i sorted out files, i took old files from old folders and put them in new folders. After lunch i went to the reception area and played games with the residents. 

Day 3 of work experience- Again i had to go and talk to Carmel for a half hour. After i had finished that i was given a job to go to the library and take down all the books and put them back on the shelves in different categories. After lunch i helped the activities woman Carol organize karaoke, after we got all the residents in the cinema room , we sang to some classic Irish songs.

Day 4 of work experience- Day 4 started off by talking to Carmel for 10 minutes after that i was sent to different bedrooms to talk to the residents, i met some fantastic people. I talked to each resident for about 20mins. Such small things can make their day. After that i had an arts and crafts class, we made angels and Christmas cards with the residents. After lunch i had to do some filing and things like that.

Day 5 of work experience- Last day of work experience i just helped around like sorting out files , talking to some of the residents and helping Ann in reception. 

Overall work experience was great i really learned alot. It was very sad saying goodbye to the people and the residents. It is a big difference to school. Now i know to work hard in school because it shows how far in life you go.
