Wolverhampton Vocational Training Centre

Introducing our new additions to college, our African Land Snails, The Shelby brothers (even though they are both genders!). Cucumber is their favourite food so far. They were kindly donated to us by Dudley College Animal Care Department.

Yesterday Our Entry Level 3 Animal Care group visited Sunnyside Kennels to present them with the monies raised from their animal cafe and raffle.

As part of our Female Empowerment sessions, all of our young ladies took part in a visit to a Farm today. They worked well as a team, showed respect and had positive interactions with each other and the wonderful farm animals.
Thanks so much to Natalie at for a fabulous day!

We were pleased to welcome Childnet into college today for a talk with our students. They shared important guidance on online safety and digital responsibility, helping our young people make safer choices in their online lives.

Today our Motor Vehicle Group had the opportunity to learn about and work on a vintage bike. They completed an oil change and had a go at starting it up. Some students even had the opportunity to sit on the back!

Last week our students took part part in a powerful workshop with anti-violence campaigner Alison Cope, learning about the real impact of knife crime and the importance of making positive choices. Following these sessions, students took part in a creative arts activity transforming school shirts to raise awareness and promote a safer future. Their work will form part of our college's Anti-Knife Crime Awareness week display in May.

Well done to some of our Year 13 students who have completed a photography unit and created some fantastic art work. They visited different places in Wolverhampton to take photos and used software to edit them and create a collage. They even visited IKEA to choose and purchase their own frames. The art work will be displayed in the college.

Our students finish today at 12:45 (12:15 if not staying for lunch.) We wish you all a lovely Easter holiday and college will re-open on Monday 13th April.

Have a great break and stay safe!
