Life at College

College life is about so much more than what happens in the classroom. It’s about finding your people, trying new things, building confidence and making memories along the way.

Get Involved

College Council

The College Council meets fortnightly to discuss things that are important to our learners.

This is an opportunity for our learners to be heard and for them to initiate change within the College and the local area. This group is a great way for our learners to develop socially and learn about democracy.

Trips & Experiences

There’s always something to look forward to at college, with a fantastic range of trips, activities and experiences throughout the year. From days out and special events to trying something completely new, these opportunities give our learners the chance to have fun, build confidence, develop new skills and make memories together. It’s all part of making college life about more than what happens in the classroom.

Clubs & Activities

There’s plenty to get involved with outside of the classroom, with clubs and activities giving our learners the chance to discover new interests, spend time with friends and try something different. One of our highlights is our award-winning Dungeons & Dragons club, where learners can get creative, work as a team, build confidence and, of course, embark on some epic adventures together.

Events & Awards

Our calendar of events brings our community together throughout the year. From our Easter and Christmas fayres to musical concerts, careers fairs and annual summer celebration, there are plenty of opportunities to get involved.

Our Summer Celebration Awards are a particular highlight, giving everyone the chance to come together at the end of the year and recognise the friendships, achievements and memories made along the way.
