Committed to supporting our Reigate Community
At Reigate Architects, we are committed to supporting our local community. On Tuesday, 12th November 2024, we proudly participated in initiatives at two local schools, helping students prepare for the next steps in their education.
Apprenticeships Evening Reigate Grammar School
Lauren and Claire represented Reigate Architects at the Reigate Grammar School Apprenticeship Evening, where they highlighted the benefits of degree apprenticeships and addressed common misconceptions. The event also featured RGS alumni who shared their first-hand experiences of apprenticeships at leading companies such as UBS, Deloitte and Dyson, as well as a local engineering firm. This was a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate how apprenticeships offer a rewarding career path that combines practical experience with academic success. Attended by students from Reigate Grammar and other local schools, the evening highlighted the wide variety of apprenticeship options available and the significant benefits they offer both to students and businesses.
Mock Interviews at Moon Hall School
Simon volunteered at Moon Hall School, joining other volunteers to conduct mock interviews for students. These sessions were designed to alleviate the anxiety often associated with preparing for interviews, whether for further education or a first job. By providing practical advice and delivering constructive feedback, the aim was to build the students’ confidence and minimise their anxieties so they feel more equipped to handle face-to-face interviews. Parents have responded overwhelmingly positively, noting how these sessions have significantly enhanced their children’s confidence for future interviews.
Supporting Holmesdale Community Infant School
Reigate Architects proudly sponsored a Christmas Tree Decoration Stall at Holmesdale Community Infant School’s Christmas Fair on Saturday 16th November, in addition to being an annual sponsor of the school’s PSA. It is always a delight to see the enthusiasm and creativity of young minds at work. Their beautiful decorations will be displayed in our office window from Tuesday 3rd December, and at the Reigate Methodist Church during the Christmas Tree Fair, running from Thursday 27th November to Sunday 1st December. This initiative is just one of the many ways we aim to get involved with the local community.
Our Commitment to Local Communities
At Reigate Architects, we believe in the power of community. Whether through supporting local schools or creating opportunities for young people, we remain dedicated to giving back to the area we proudly call home.
