One thing you’ll notice about Harper is that during the holidays, almost everyone works full time!
This Easter, I returned to the same farm I was lambing on last year, which I found through the National Sheep Association Website. Obviously you have to leave time to complete your assignments and revise over Easter, but if you’re looking for work the Careers Office at Harper can be really helpful, and often other students’ families want help so it’s generally easy to find something if you ask!
