La Salle's year 10 students have been busy at work this week for their first week of work experience.
Some students have been on duty at the local vet, others at schools and students have even been out on building sites.
I have been at the Lithgow Mercury for my first week, interviewing people, writing articles and much more.
Through the week I have learnt about the process of putting together the Mercury and writing articles.
I would definitely recommend this type of work experience to any future student who enjoys writing and journalism. I was especially surprised by how much I enjoyed interviewing people. I have found it very interesting and everyone I have worked with has been so nice and helpful.
