“The college has been really helpful for me. I’ve gained confidence from being here and everything in general has been great”.
“I came to college already knowing 2 people and we’ve been here together for the whole 3 years. It’s a place which can help with making new friends and making the ones I came with stronger”.
“I like the things we study at college, in Land-Based I can learn new practical skills. We’ve learned health and safety, thatching roofs. It’s something I’d like to study in the future. I liked learning about the paranormal, which is an interest of mine and I got to learn other people’s opinions and teach others about your interests”.
“At the minute in Land Studies we’re keeping the college place clean. Doing gardening and keeping our own environment clean and tidy. We’ve been painting benches and the shed, making it look nice for summer.
“I started my work experience with the Land Team with my 2 friends. The people I worked with made work enjoyable, and was able to have a laugh with them while getting stuck in. It’s what you want from a job, something that you always want to go back to”.
“I always wanted a Land-Based work experience, and I’ve had that experience for 3 years now”.
“I now work with Tivoli. I get to learn new skills and use more tools. It’s a good place and a nice feeling that the workers are shocked at how fast we work, getting stuck in and don’t complain”.
“What’s even better is that there could be a possibility of working with them in the future”.
“Route2Work has been great for me, people listen to you and you’re able to express what you want. It’s enjoyable and can change your life”.
“It brings out your confidence that you never knew you had. I’m much more independent now and the trips out have definitely helped”.
