Introducing the latest faces of Newbury College who are about to hit your online streaming this spring/summer as part of our brand new campaign.
The new campaign features students and apprentices from across Newbury College to showcase the diverse range of subjects and progression opportunities available for young people.
Marketing Manager, Rachel Woodford, said: "Our students are the best advocates for the College and it was a pleasure working with them on this video. Thank you to all those who took part."
The video will officially launch next month and will be shown across a number of online video streaming services.
Master chefs from the Newbury College catering course took part in the recent Country Range Student Chef Challenge, coming third in the regional semi-final heat against other colleges from across the country.
The Newbury College team of Level 2 Professional Cookery students - David Phillips, William Barker and John Rich - saw off competition from some very well-known and well respected colleges, only narrowly missing out on a top spot at the upcoming finals.
Catering student and semi-finalist, John Rich, said I'm really proud of myself and the others, we all did really well and I enjoyed the experience. I'm glad that I managed to get the dessert out how I wanted and that the judges were pleased with it.
Course leader, Malcolm Baggott, said I am tremendously proud of everything these students have achieved in the competition. The dishes they produced showed an exceptional level of skill and creativity. Competition judges were equally as complimentary, giving the students plenty of constructive feedback and praise.
The students are now enjoying a well-earned half term break before returning to class next week when they will continue to practice their craft cooking for The Restaurant at Newbury College.
The Restaurant at Newbury College is open to the public for lunches and functions with set price menus from just £7.95. For bookings please visit www.newbury-college.ac.uk/restaurant
Students from our hair and beauty department were in demand at the annual Prom Day Prom Fair event at Donnington Grove Country Club on Sunday 5 February.
The event allows teenagers in West Berkshire to plan and gather ideas for their prom or special occasion and showcases many local businesses.
Students from Newbury College's Academy Salons provided free hair styling, make up and nail demonstrations for the catwalk models and members of the public. They worked tirelessly throughout the event, which was very well attended, and produced some beautiful and complex styles.
Sarah Evans from Prom Day, said: We were very impressed with the students and their standard of work on the day. The models looked fantastic on the catwalk.
Rachael Elsey, Curriculum Manager of Service Industries, said: The Prom Fair provides a great opportunity for our students to showcase their skills whilst working to tight deadlines. I was really impressed with the enthusiasm and commitment shown by each learner.
