ARBROATH HIGH SCHOOL

Two former Arbroath High School pupils who are current 1st year apprentices with ourselves, attended at the school to give a talk on how maths is applied to engineering.
Liam McHardy, GlaxoSmithKline and Rory Taylor, Baker Hughes did a great job discussing this and showing measuring and calculations.
The school sent an e-mail in thanking the apprentices:
“Thank you so much again for getting Rory and Liam to come in and support us on Friday. We appreciate the time they gave up for us”
“What can I say ….. THEY WERE AMAZING! The pupils loved them and all thought they did a fantastic job. It was lovely to see them both again and hear how well they are getting on”
The school also sent in a lovely thank you card.
