Year 13 student, Amy, has been getting some valuable work experience recently thanks to local swimming group, The Teesdale Tiger Sharks. The friendly, amateur group welcome swimmers from Year 7 onwards to train at any of their three weekly sessions.
Amy, who is applying to study media communications at university next year, jumped at the chance to help the club by writing articles for local newspapers and producing content for their social media channels.
Amy plans to share the work with other sixth form students hoping to pursue a future career in media, communications or journalism.
Good job, Amy!
