ACTORS, journalists, footballers and soldiers.

Those were just some of the people on hand to talk to students about careers at Perins School in Alresford.

Around 20 former Perins students were invited to come along to the school to speak about their chosen courses and careers to current year 11 pupils.

The event also included an evening of sport with 150 ex-pupils forming teams to play netball, rugby and football before settling down to a hog roast.

Rorie Whybror, Head of PE, said: “It was fantastic. We are very grateful to the former pupils who came back to talk so enthusiastically to the students.”
