The children discussed the potential careers that may interest them, including science, sport, construction and medicine. We then thought about what characteristics are needed for each role. For veterinary medicine, we decided that you should be ambitious, compassionate, hard working and mentally strong. We also considered how important the characteristics of dedication, discipline and confidence are for sports people.
