We are talking about careers day, the day when you had a go at being a police officer, a midwife or a construction worker.
Have a look at these Careers Day scenes from the past at schools including Thornhill, Fulwell Juniors, Southmoor, Castleview, and New Silksworth.
Some of these scenes go back to 2003 and 2004, but more importantly, what do you remember of them?
Was it the first step of a fabulous career for you? Have a look and tell us more.
