It’s always great to hear stories of progression throughout the College! 👏

Back in 2017, Emma Hill was at risk of becoming NEET so she joined our Bridge programme while she thought about which career pathway she wanted to follow 🛣️

Group 3 have made over 25 hampers for Swansea Women's Aid. We will be taking them down today. Massive thank you to everyone who donated (across the various campuses). "I have been very proud of how the group have conducted themselves throughout this activity"said tutor Bev Morgan

2/2 - Since then we have been busy collecting items to donate.  Our plan is to take the hampers down to Swansea Women’s Aid in the first week of December.@GowerCollegeSwa

1/2-One of our groups have decided they would like to create Christmas hampers for Swansea Women’s Aid.  A number of us know friends and family who had accessed this facility.  We wanted to try and make things a little easier for people at Christmas. @GowerCollegeSwa

Been a awesome few days with @GowerCollegeSwa speaking at their learners fest. One more to go tomorrow and just look what it means to these young people 🙌🏻

[Advance into Further Education @AdvanceintoFE]

Attendance and engagement has far exceeded the teams’ expectations. Competitions across groups are in place to see who grows the tallest sunflower, whose seeds sprout first and whose herb tastes the nicest.

This year we have introduced a new unit to our Advance into FE course. This unit is called “growing plants”. It is a very practical unit and learners are experiencing how to grow from seed, how to pot on and how to plant outside in borders. @GowerCollegeSwa

[Advance into Further Education @AdvanceintoFE]

Bev has then been doing daily live video calls demonstrating how to plant and learners have been following the steps in the comfort of their own homes. The buy in from the learners has been exemplary.

[Advance into Further Education @AdvanceintoFE]

They are growing a variety of plants/herbs. The intention was to deliver this unit in college, however lockdown hit and we had to deliver it remotely. Bev Morgan has been taking boxes around to each learners’ home which contained the materials needed to start their unit from home

Group C participated in Remembrance Day and held a 2 minute silence.

It was 'fame at last' for one of our @AdvanceintoFE groups when we made one of our regular visits to @DTEProject on the same day they were filming Wonders of the Coast Path (ITV)🚶🚶‍♀️🎒

We appear about 17 minutes in 🤩
