Welcome to Work Experience (WEX)!

Week 1 – w/b 31st Aug

Vision Boards

This week you will use your creative skills to make your own vision board. This activity will help us to get to know you better! You will use A2 paper, pens, pencils and magazines to bring it to life.

A vision board is simply a visual representation of your goals, hopes and dreams in life. and you use images and words to create one. It can include things you want to achieve this year/ in your career/ in your personal life/ any ambitions you have for the future.

There are really no rules when it comes to vision boards, since it’s about crafting something that will inspire you to realise your dreams and goals on a daily basis.
