Hi, I’m Brendan, and I’m the dad of Beauden and Billie. My job as a Finance Director is all about numbers, plans, and making sure our company has enough money to keep things running smoothly.

The companies I work for help connect homes and businesses to important things like electricity, water, and the internet. Imagine turning on a light switch, taking a shower, or streaming your favourite show—that’s only possible because of the connections we have made! We also power big warehouses that store food, and the things people buy online. And those electric car chargers you see popping up everywhere – we help make those happen too. Even the new houses being built near Rushbrooke Lane – that’s us in action making those connections.

A big part of my job is making sure our group of company’s "report card" (called an audit) is correct. Think of it as teachers marking your homework to ensure all the answers correct. But instead of getting a golden credit card or moving down the zone board, I have to share our results with lots of people and publish them on the internet.

So, while you are learning numbers at school, I use them every day at work—just with a lot more zeroes!

Hi I’m Hayley, Rocco’s mum.

A psychologist is a person who helps people understand why they may do things, and make changes in their life to help them think more positively, have happier lives and better relationships with themselves and others.

Psychologists can help in lots of ways, whether it’s coping with their emotions, setting goals, or having better sleep.

Psychologists can also help athletes to perform better, did you know nearly every professional football team will have a psychologist on their coaching team to help them do well? Psychologists also help in schools, and they can help employers pick the best people for their best jobs. There’s so many areas that psychologists can help in!

My job is a Forensic Psychologist, I am the Head of Psychology for a hospital and work in the Youth Custody Service. This means that I work with teenagers and adults who have committed crimes to understand why they have done what they have so they can change, and help them to live crime free lives. This also helps us to protect the public.

When was at school I used to talk all the time, I was often told off for being too chatty! So for those of you who may also struggle to hold in your excitement and want to share ideas with people it’s ok! I have made a career out of doing something I love- talking to people. 😃

Hi, I'm Cali and Avie's mum, Katy. Cali is in Finland class and Avie is in Maple Room.

I used to work as a Family Law Solicitor for a local Firm where I helped parents with arrangements for their children or when separating.

I now work as a receptionist in a school office. I work closely with colleagues, parents, carers and contractors to help keep students safe whilst in school. I am often on the phone or at my computer desk communicating with everyone. It's an interesting and varied job. No two days are the same! I am lucky to work with a lovely team that have a genuine passion to help children succeed.

I love the flexibility of the job so I can do the school run for the girls and have quality time with them in the school holidays (where we can make lots of core memories).

My name is Craig and I am daddy to Eleanor & Abigail (Australia and Grace (Israel).

My job sounds a bit boring as I work in Payroll. However, the job of Payroll is to pay people for their jobs so without Payroll nobody would get paid (even Teachers) and everybody would be really grumpy. So you could say Payroll is one of the most important jobs ever :)

My job title is Associate Director of Technology & Efficiency and I’m in charge of deciding what goes into the Payroll software that my company makes. The software is on a computer and does all the complicated calculations of making sure people get the right amount of money. I then make sure that everybody I work with understands what new things are in our software and how they can use it to do a good job.

Hello everyone! I’m Toby’s and Tyler’s Mum, my favourite job! I am also the author of ‘My Awesome Autism’ and the ‘Ready Eddie Go!’ book collection. I am also the creator/producer of the TV show on Sky Kids called ‘Ready Eddie Go!’ My main character Eddie is autistic, he is funny, kind and creative! Eddie loves all things space! In each episode Eddie tries new things with the help of his friends, puppy Scout and narrator Jodie! Eddie learns that it’s okay to feel however you do and that we are all different which is amazing!

Look out for a ‘Toby’ in season 2 this June!

I love my job, every author needs an illustrator, it’s all about team work and we listen to each others ideas! I also enjoy making the TV show because it helps people. We have writers, animators and voice artists who are also autistic and have ADHD. Every individual brings their unique strengths and talents to different parts of the show! We celebrate everyone’s differences and ideas. It would be very boring if we were all the same. 😃

My Super Cool Job: A Career in Marketing (my office in Singapore)

# data[].attributes.body
Hi everyone! My name is Liz, and I'm the proud mum of Madison. I have a job that’s all about writing, creating, and helping people all over the world find what they need. I’m the Global Head of Content and SEO (that’s a fancy way of saying I help companies tell great stories online).

The fun part? I get to use computers to make videos, write exciting things, and make sure people everywhere can find the answers they’re looking for—kind of like being a digital explorer! Have you ever asked Siri or Google a question? Well, someone like me helps write the answers you hear!

I also manage an amazing team of 12 people who live in India, Singapore, the Philippines, the UK, and Australia. Because we all live in different time zones, my work hours are a little unusual. Sometimes I wake up at 4 AM for meetings or stay up until midnight talking to people across the world. It’s like being part of a secret mission that never sleeps! Oh, and because we're on a video call and they can only see my face, sometimes I go to meetings wearing my pyjamas, but shhhh! 💤

Marketing is all about storytelling—just like writing a book or making up an adventure with your friends. Instead of dragons and superheroes, I help tell stories about businesses and the cool things they do!

But guess what? When I was a kid, I never thought I’d do this job. I actually wanted to be a mechanic and work on cars! One of my first jobs was at a bank, but later I realized that my true passion was something I had always loved in school—writing and storytelling.

And that’s what I want you to know: You can do anything you want to do! The world is full of possibilities, and even if you change your mind along the way (like I did), you’ll always find something exciting waiting for you.

So dream big, be curious, and tell great stories—who knows where they’ll take you? 🚀

Job : U15 Boys Academy Football Coach at Fulham FC 

# data[].attributes.body
Hi I’m Ross a family friend to Evie Nelson , she asked me to write about my job. The role means the designing, planning and carrying out the coaching of football for a squad of Academy level footballers who are hoping to one day gain a professional contract and have a career as a footballer.

There is an 18 year old called Josh King who is playing for Fulham in Premier League while studying for his A-Levels too at the moment.

The boys are at school as normal but practice three evenings per week, we have matches on weekends and also play in a mid-week floodlit cup competition.

We play all the other youth teams from the Premier League near London, like Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham and sometimes go

to the north to play teams from Liverpool and Manchester, for example.

They also get an afternoon away from school once a week to do some education and train at the club.

The job is really fun as I like being outside and helping highly motivated and skilful boys who want to make the most of their sport while working as a team.

The weather can be cold sometimes and we have to work many hours in the evenings and weekends but it is worth it as the best bits are that we get to take the boys to tournaments abroad.

We have been to play in Germany, France, Spain, Holland and this Easter in Turkey, where we get to play teams from Argentina called River Plate and Boca Juniors.

Fulham is a great club to work for, with lots of nice people and great facilities like an indoor pitch. Our Academy Values are Honesty, Humility and Hardwork and everyone tries really hard to be like this all the time.

We have to work as a team of staff with Physiotherapists, Data Analysts, Fitness Coaches and Cosches from other age-groups.

You have to work hard at School and gain to knowledge of science and the human body and also study lots of Coaching courses while working as new knowledge is always being used to try and be as good as we can be.

Hi, my name is Sean and I'm Cali's dad. I am a Senior Finance Manager for a company that design and manufacture  products for cameras.

The company is over 100 years old (that's older than me, though Cali may say otherwise)!

A lot of the TV programmes, news, movies and sports you watch use our products to film them. They were used at the last Football World Cup and Tokyo Olympics. Plus they've even won a few Oscars (big shiny gold trophies) for their innovations to film making.

My job is to make sure all the money adds up. My team makes sure our customers pay on time and we pay our suppliers and employees on time. All whilst trying to make a profit so we can continue to make new and exciting products.

The company buys and sells all around the world so I get to speak to people from many different countries (most likely the country your class is named after) which I really enjoy. Everyone needs money to carry out their jobs properly in the company so they come to my team to get this sorted which allows us to understand all the different roles in the company.

I have to be accurate with numbers (sometimes a calculator is needed for the big ones) and good with computers because we use a lot of data to create wonderful graphs and calculations to help us plan for the future.

Once upon a time, there was a clever doctor named Heba. She had a special job—helping children who found speaking difficult. Some had trouble finding the right words, some stuttered when they spoke, and others had troubles in their voices. She worked hard to support them, helping them grow confident and strong.

To become a doctor, she had to study for many years—first in high school, then in medical school, and even more after that! She loved her job, her little patients, and her busy hospital. But one day, everything changed.

Dr. Heba had to make a big decision. Her family was moving to a new country, far from home. She had to leave her hospital, her patients, and even her big family behind. But she knew one thing—her most important job now was being a great mum and keeping her family close.

At first, it was tough. She wasn’t treating patients anymore, but realized something amazing. Being a good mum was the hardest and most rewarding job ever! Her mission not only raising a good people but also teaching her children their mother tongue, Arabic, and keeping them connected to their faith.

Finally by the grace of Allah...

She found her inspiring career after volunteering to teach Muslim kids Arabic language, the language of the Holy Quran and Islamic studies to help them get more closer to their God ,their Creator... and which is the best career ever..

Now, Dr.Heba is not just a mother to Yahia (Russia Class) and Yusuf (Italy Class)—she is a mother to over 45 children!

Together, they are on a wonderful journey towards the truth.

And that, she discovered, is the best career of all!

your career can change, and surely you can find happiness in helping others in different ways!"

I’m Sofia, Henrik’s mum and I have 2 jobs.

I am a pet portrait artist. I draw many different types of animals like dogs, cats and horses. I also occasionally get to draw wildlife too like robins, ravens and even a lion. I use pencil, ink, charcoal and chalk which can get messy but is a lot of fun.

The best part about the job is being able to create a piece of art that will make people smile when they see it on their wall. It’s also great because I can work from home and that allows me to be flexible.

My second job is in a snowboarding/ski shop which sells things like jackets, helmets and goggles that helps people stay safe and warm on the mountain. It’s great chatting with people excited about their holiday. I also get to service snowboards and skis which involves waxing and edging making sure they’re extra fast down the slopes (with a helmet on of course!).

Hi my name is Kathryn, I’m Olivia’s mum. I work with schools like Abbots Green, helping them to use the money they get from the government to make sure each child gets the best possible education they can. This can be anything as small as making sure they have enough money to buy pencils and books to bigger things like Trips, Electricity for the lights or Building projects like new classrooms. I help them plan a budget for each school year which is a list of everything they want to do and how much it costs, including all the staff who work in the school. Then each month I check to make sure what is happening in school matches this. If it doesn’t I advise the school on why and what they might need to do if they’ve spent abit too much money, or if they have some extra money they can spend.

Barbara worked at a laboratory as a packaging manager. She had to talk to the suppliers and make sure they had the right items. Sometimes if they were doing an offer she would ask for more than usual and she would make sure that happened.

She worked there for 20 years. Before doing this job, she had to go to college and study biology and chemistry.

She used to work Monday to Friday from 7:30 to 5 and she loved her job a lot. Sometimes, she had to travel far to speak to suppliers and go all around the country.

After she had children, she went to work as a chef in a school kitchen for 5 years in a big secondary school.

Overall, she loved both of their jobs and had fun doing them.

Although I still go out and about to unwell people or hurt people my main job is working for an urgent care and crisis team called R.E.A.CT. The hospital the doctor or ambulance service ask me to visit people at home who are unwell and should go to hospital. But instead we bring the hospital to them and visit them everyday to make them better in their own home. We make sure they have all the right medicines. Carers to help them and things at home to keep them safe. I travel in a car and make people better just like the ambulance staff do. Evie and Leo are my children and they also like helping others.

Year 1 were lucky enough to have a visit from Together Dental this week. They told us about the importance of brushing our teeth, and what can happen if we don’t. We learnt which foods, despite being healthy, aren’t in fact very healthy for our teeth. The children were asked to cover the animals teeth with plaque and nasty bugs, then brush it all away, teaching them how to thoroughly clean their own teeth. At the end of the visit, the children all got their own goody bag, containing an activity pack, tooth brushing chart, toothpaste, a 2 minute timer and a brand new toothbrush. What an exciting opportunity!

Hello! I’m Mark (Dad to Betty in Norway & Harry in Morocco) & I am the Technical & Planning Director for a House Builder.

My role is to lead a team of Town Planners, Architects & Engineers to design Residential-led developments. This means that as well as building houses we also deliver local infrastructure such as schools, shops & play parks.

I love how diverse my job is as every project we work on has its own challenges & opportunities. One minute we can be talking with an ecologist to understand how we can protect the homes of animals like newts or badgers & the next we will be discussing how to fit new technologies in to peoples homes.

Building sites are all around us - there may even be one close to your house or school. But remember, although they may look exciting and fun to play in, they can be very dangerous places… Please stay safe by staying away from building sites!

I'm Becky (Elijah's Mummy) and I am a vet. I work in a hospital where we look after cats and dogs and I specialise in anaesthesia. This means I give medicines that make the pets unconscious (asleep) for investigations (when we are finding out what is making them unwell) and operations. I look after them using quite a few monitoring machines whilst they are anaesthetised and as they wake up. The machines look at what their heart, blood vessels and lungs are doing, as well as giving the medicine to keep them anaesthetised.

I also give other medicines to keep them comfortable and pain-free before, during and after operations and investigations. Another part of my job is teaching other vets and nurses about anaesthesia.

My job involves a lot of science (mostly physics, pharmacology, physiology and anatomy), some maths, making decisions, communicating with other vets who work with me, and organising the day for the team

There are lots of different veterinary roles: working with lots of different species (horses, cows, birds...even alligators!), food production and safety, conservation and making new medicines are a few of them.

You need to go to university for 5 or 6 years to be a vet and then you can choose what particularly interests you and how you want to work as a vet, which might need some more training whilst you are working (I trained for another 4 years to work in anaesthesia). The training is quite long, so a lot of my non-vet friends were already earning money whilst I was still studying, and I have taken a lot of exams. However, it is often very satisfying, always interesting and I love my work.

I am Becky (Erin's Mummy) and I am a veterinary anaesthetist - a vet who specialises in anaesthesia. I work in a hospital that looks after cats and dogs. My job involves giving medicines to make pets asleep for operations or investigations, or for taking special pictures of their bodies to work out why they are unwell and how we can help them, and I look after them whilst they are asleep. I also give them medicines to keep them comfortable and stop them from being painful during the sleepy period and afterwards. Another part of my job is teaching other vets and nurses about anaesthesia.

There are a lot of different things vets do. Vets can work with a wide variety of animals - horses, cows, birds, even alligators! Some vets do lots of operations and some vets work out what all the special pictures mean. Other vets help make sure the food we eat that comes from animals is safe to eat.

Hi I’m Carl, Albie’s and Sidney’s (oak room) dad. I am a quantity surveyor with over 20 years experience in the construction industry. I have a civil engineering degree and a masters degree in construction law and dispute resolution.

My job relies on being a good communicator, both written and verbal. My job also involves all aspects of money, therefore it is also important to be good with numbers.

The construction projects I usually am involved with are large scale projects, mainly bridges and new roads, so I need to have a technical understanding of how to build things.

I have been involved in some big civil engineering project in my career with the last one being to install a new bridge over a live railway line and main road which I actually took Albie to see being installed on really big remote controlled trailers and with the biggest crane in the country. I get to see all your favourite diggers, dumpers and trucks everyday.

I get involved in lots of different parts of construction and because of my degree, I am trusted to draft up contracts for others to administer meaning I am involved with multiple people and companies at once.

My name is Sarah, and I am a Speech and Language Therapy Apprentice, and Neve and Elliott's mum. I work with people with communication, eating, drinking, and swallowing difficulties. I am studying to become a Speech and Language Therapist (SLT) at Essex University but also work at the hospital and in community clinics or in people's homes.

We all communicate in lots of different ways, not just talking, so my job is different all the time. If you can't communicate it can be very tricky to tell people about what you want to do, eat, wear, and watch on TV, and making friends can be very hard. I also try to make eating and drinking safer and more comfortable for people.

Many SLTs work with children with speech, language, and communication needs, so they work with teachers, teaching assistants and parents as well as children.

Hello, I'm Kim and my job is to make sure that the people living at Oxlip House are really happy and safe.

Every week, I meet with the Care Team to talk about anyone who needs extra help and we work out how we can do this.

Spending time with people who live at Oxlip House is really important, especially if they don’t have many visitors. So I pop in and see people at lunchtime and during activities to make sure they are well and enjoying themselves. Some people don’t leave their flat as they are too poorly, so I visit them to make sure that everything is ok.

By talking to everyone, I can find out things that I can do to make life at Oxlip House even better.

I also do health & safety checks throughout the building - these include checking that everyone has a personal alarm and they know how to use it – if someone is poorly or has had an accident, they can use their alarm to tell the Care Team that they need help.

Each day at Oxlip House is very different but my favourite days are when new people move in. I also love it when we have visitors who entertain us all – especially our friends from Abbots Green!

Hi, I’m Amanda, Lucy’s (Thailand) and Tygo’s (Brazil) mum.

I own a doula agency in Minnesota. A big part of what I do is match families with a supportive care team, as well as, empower and oversee our staff in their continued education, training and professional development.

A Doula is a non-medical professional that provides physical, emotional and educational support in various settings including birth, postpartum, intensive care and hospice. This sometimes looks like helping families and big siblings prepare for a new baby, helping new parents get sleep, or supporting patients and their family during long or difficult hospital stays.

Our work is incredibly rewarding, but it can also be difficult at times. Part of my job is to debrief or talk with our team and make sure they are taking care of themselves.

I went to university for a Bachelor’s in Health Education and after working for a few years, I returned to school to complete a Master’s in Public Health. In addition to my degrees, I’ve obtained certifications in childbirth education, lactation (breastfeeding) counselling, and postpartum mental health.

I love owning my own business as it provides flexibility in my schedule. It also gives me the opportunity to build skills in other areas such as marketing, website design, accounting, grant writing and event planning.

I own a doula agency in Minnesota. A big part of what I do is match families with a supportive care team, as well as, empower and oversee our staff in their continued education, training and professional development.

A Doula is a non-medical professional that provides physical, emotional and educational support in various settings including birth, postpartum, intensive care and hospice. This sometimes looks like helping families and big siblings prepare for a new baby, helping new parents get sleep, or supporting patients and their family during long or difficult hospital stays.

Our work is incredibly rewarding, but it can also be difficult at times. Part of my job is to debrief or talk with our team and make sure they are taking care of themselves.

I went to university for a Bachelor’s in Health Education and after working for a few years, I returned to school to complete a Master’s in Public Health. In addition to my degrees, I’ve obtained certifications in childbirth education, lactation (breastfeeding) counselling, and postpartum mental health.

I love owning my own business as it provides flexibility in my schedule. It also gives me the opportunity to build skills in other areas such as marketing, website design, accounting, grant writing and event planning.

Hi, I'm Laura, Theo's Mummy and I am a Food and Drink Buyer for Sterling Supergroup. I help lots of Wholesalers which sell food and drink to cafes, restaurants, pubs, takeaways, schools and care homes. My job is to meet with suppliers and decide if their food and drink range is suitable for our members to offer to their customers. I also save them money by trying to get the best price possible! I travel quite a bit to see our members and suppliers which are based all over the country. I love my job and we also get lots of free food and drink samples which is always good!

Hello, I’m Gemma and I am Ethan’s mummy. I work as a cardiac nurse at Addenbrookes hospital, taking care of people with poorly hearts. I give them medication to help make them feel better and I scrub for cardiac procedures that help fix their hearts. I have spent the past 15 years looking after patients and feel very lucky to have such an interesting and rewarding job. Nursing is a fantastic career as there are so many different areas you can work in and everyday at work is different!

Hi, I’m Joshua (Finland Class) and Eden’s (Oak Room) mum. I work as a doctor in orthopaedic surgery at a hospital. My job involves looking after people who have had injuries related to their bones or the musculoskeletal system. I sometimes see people who come to A&E after an injury. I give advice on how to treat them, they might need a plaster cast for example or if it’s a really bad injury we might need to fix the bones together with an operation. My job is very practical and good for people who like working with their hands. I look after people of all ages and I enjoy helping people get better and get back to doing the things they love!

Hi, I'm Tim, Max (China class) and Leo's (Oak room) dad. I'm a paramedic and have worked in a lot of different jobs... The fast little ambulance cars, the big ambulances and helping people in places that are difficult to get to like rivers and underground.

At the moment I work in the emergency department in a big hospital seeing all sorts of people... Babies who are feeling poorly, boys and girls who have had a tumble and grown ups who are feeling unwell too!

I love my job! I'm very lucky to be able to help people who aren't feeling well and make them feel better or ask people in other parts of the hospital to see if they can help too!

Bonjour France Class.

My name is Jade and I am Rueben's mummy.

I work in a specialist school for children who find it tricky to come to a school with lots of children. We have 57 students in our school.

My job role is a Pastoral Support officer and A HLTA. Sometimes I get to teach from year 5 to year 11, I also get to do really cool interventions. I have worked there for nearly 3 years. It is the most amazing job and the children are all incredible and brave.

I previously worked for a technology company which was really cool but not as fun as my job at the school.

My favourite thing to do in the evenings is watch bluey with Rueben and sometimes Ruebens big sister loves watching bluey too.

Bye 👋
