4-7 December has been Gratitude Week at the College – a time for students to focus on what they’re grateful for, and for the whole College community to come together to support a variety of charities.

Students and staff have been collecting donations for Stripey Stork, a local Age Concern centre and the local foodbank charity Loveworks.  While further from home, the Wellingara Nursery in The Gambia has benefited from donations of stationery and learning equipment.

Throughout Gratitude week, activities were set up across the College to help ease students into the festive spirit – these included a concert by the Staff Band, Christmas card-making and the decoration of gingerbread biscuits.
