Dr. Campbell Emmerton talks to senior classes about his job.

As part of our unit on careers, we were very lucky to have psychiatrist Dr Campbell Emmerton come to our school last week on Friday the 14th of May. Dr Cam talked to the senior members of our school about how he arrived at his chosen career, the training he had to undertake and answered many questions from the students. We found out that brains were spongy when you touched them, the importance of being curious and following your instincts, that relationships with friends and family are very important to staying healthy and happy and that expressing your feelings and emotions good for you.
Dr Cam's talk was entertaining, witty, inspirational and insightful. Thanks Dr Cam for coming and sharing your thoughts, stories and humour with us. We now have many students that aspire to become psychiatrists like you!
