Kids take over for the day at NGIS

No board meeting came close – the managing director faced his sternest examination yet when the children of staff members grilled him on matters of strategy and the company balance sheet.

For a fourth year, the children of the NGIS team descended on NGIS’ Burswood office. 

The annual Kids at Work Day 2018 allowed children as young as four and as old as 13 to get a taste of what it is like to work at NGIS, understand more about the business and learn about what their parents do in the office each day.

The day commenced with a boardroom briefing, followed by an opportunity to ask questions of the NGIS team with regard to their respective job roles. 

Shortly after, the kids were invited to the NGIS training room and given a tutorial on coding their own web pages and a chance to immerse themselves in virtual reality.

The 15 children relished the days work by enjoying a delicious morning tea before heading home.

Some photos from the day can be viewed below.
