We enjoyed having Amber spend the week with us last week as part of her Year 10 work experience.

Year 10 student, Amber, recently did a weeks work experience at Blooms the Chemist in Springwood. She had an action packed week full of stocktaking, customer service, and learning. She asked lots of questions of her supervisors and embraced every opportunity to learn.
Congratulations on a successful week Amber, and thank you to the amazing staff at Blooms the Chemist Springwood for giving Amber this brilliant experience.
