mead vale pupils in hard hats at our south west skills

<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">On the last day of term, our South West Skills Campus (SWSC) opened its doors to some of its youngest visitors yet—Year 1 pupils from Puffin Class at Mead Vale Primary School. The young students were invited to take part in an inspiring Careers in Construction Workshop, created to introduce them to the exciting world of construction.&nbsp;</p><p>The workshop was led by Richard Hanney, Head of Construction, and Victoria Howell, Deputy Head of Construction, whose enthusiasm and expertise brought the experience to life. They were joined by Georgie Durbin and Rebecca Barnett from our School Liaison Team, along with Cass Green from the Apprenticeship Team, who all worked together to ensure the day ran smoothly and was filled with fun.&nbsp;</p><p>The day began with "construction phonics"—a clever and creative way to connect literacy with construction themes. The pupils then rotated through a variety of hands-on activities including a Careers in Construction session, Tool Bingo, and a collaborative Tower Building challenge that encouraged teamwork, creativity, and a bit of friendly competition.&nbsp;</p><p>To round off the day, the primary school pupils were taken on a guided tour of the SWSC campus, where they got a behind-the-scenes look at the learning spaces, workshops, and equipment used by our construction students. It was a chance for them to see real-life learning in action—and perhaps imagine themselves there in the future!&nbsp;</p><p>Wearing hard hats and with a whole new vocabulary of tools and trades, the Puffin Class left feeling inspired and excited about the world of building and design.&nbsp;</p><drupal-entity alt="&quot;mead vale students at south west skills construction room&quot;" data-align="center" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e3ed33d4-b1a3-4e5f-b06a-f1de6e9749a9" data-embed-button="file_browser" data-entity-embed-display="image:image" data-entity-embed-display-settings="{&quot;image_style&quot;:&quot;max_650x650&quot;,&quot;image_link&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;image_loading&quot;:{&quot;attribute&quot;:&quot;lazy&quot;}}">&nbsp;</drupal-entity><p>A huge thank you goes to Richard and Victoria for leading such an engaging and educational workshop, and to Georgie, Rebecca, and Cass for their support in making the day a fun-filled success.

Protective Services students before their 26 mile stretcher relay race

<p style="margin-bottom:16px;margin-left:0;margin-top:16px;"><span style="font-size:inherit;">This year’s Raising and Giving Week (<strong>RAG Week</strong>) at Weston College was a great example of collaboration across all subject areas. With the theme of ‘Flower Power’, the college came together to raise money for two incredible local charities: <strong>Weston Hospicecare</strong> and <strong>The Grand Appeal</strong>. &nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-bottom:16px;margin-left:0;margin-top:16px;"><span style="font-size:inherit;"><strong>Weston Hospicecare</strong> offers vital palliative care for individuals with life-limiting illnesses and provides essential emotional support for their families. <strong>The Grand Appeal </strong>supports Bristol Children’s Hospital, helping to deliver life-saving care for sick children and their loved ones. The funds raised throughout RAG Week were split evenly between these two amazing charities. &nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-bottom:16px;margin-left:0;margin-top:16px;"><span style="font-size:inherit;">Throughout the week, students and staff took part in a wide variety of fundraising events, ranging from raffles and bake sales, to more active sessions such as sponsored walks, races and football matches. This week takes place every year across the country and is a fantastic way for all students to get involved and take part in fun activities before exam season begins. &nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-bottom:16px;margin-left:0;margin-top:16px;"><span style="font-size:inherit;">Outside of the activities, many people took the flower power theme seriously, with departments such as </span><a href="https://www.weston.ac.uk/what-can-i-study/courses-16-18-year-olds/healt…; rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://www.weston.ac.uk/what-can-i-study/courses-16-18-year-olds/healt…; target="_blank"><span style="color:#37797B;font-size:inherit;">Health and Social Care</span></a><span style="font-size:inherit;"> and </span><a href="https://www.weston.ac.uk/what-can-i-study/courses-16-18-year-olds/perfo…; rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://www.weston.ac.uk/what-can-i-study/courses-16-18-year-olds/perfo…; target="_blank"><span style="color:#37797B;font-size:inherit;">Performing Arts</span></a><span style="font-size:inherit;"> dressed up in bright colours and 70s-style clothes. Not only this, the reception team and some support staff created a ‘Westonbury Festival’ theme, wearing some amazing flower power outfits which ended up winning them best dressed! &nbsp;</span></p><drupal-entity alt="&quot;Support staff wearing flower power-themed outfits&quot;" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="32f7f0cc-ce9c-4f7a-bdff-ab15e794d087" data-embed-button="file_browser" data-entity-embed-display="image:image" data-entity-embed-display-settings="{&quot;image_style&quot;:&quot;max_500x500&quot;,&quot;image_link&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;image_loading&quot;:{&quot;attribute&quot;:&quot;lazy&quot;}}">&nbsp;</drupal-entity><p style="margin-bottom:16px;margin-left:0;margin-top:16px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-bottom:16px;margin-left:0;margin-top:16px;"><span style="font-size:inherit;">Another popular RAG Week tradition is a college-wide raffle which featured a range of popular prizes, including day passes and tickets to local attractions such as spas, cinemas, and activity centres. Many departments also organised bake sales across each campus as these are always popular and delicious. &nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-bottom:16px;margin-left:0;margin-top:16px;"><span style="font-size:inherit;">Across the week, </span><a href="https://www.weston.ac.uk/what-can-i-study/courses-16-18-year-olds/prote…; rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://www.weston.ac.uk/what-can-i-study/courses-16-18-year-olds/prote…; target="_blank"><span style="color:#37797B;font-size:inherit;">Protective Services</span></a><span style="font-size:inherit;"> hosted two major events: a flower-themed two-hour Zumbathon open to all, and a five-hour stretcher relay along the seafront, covering 26 miles.
