• INSPIRE visitor: Benjamina

  Fri 08 Nov 2024

  Benjamina  Ebuehi was our visitor in November.

  Benjamina told us that she had thought about several

  careers while she was in school including teaching, being a

  lawyer or having a career in maths because it was a subject that she was good at.

  Benjamina explained that she developed her love of baking when she used to cook with her mum. She applied to The Great British Bake off and was successful. Although she did not win the series, she has since developed a career in baking. She has written 3 books on baking and enjoys developing new recipes.

  Benjamina encouraged the children to follow their passions as they could make careers out of them.
