Well done to Level 2 Brickwork apprentice, Josh who has excelled in his apprenticeship. The former Parklands pupil won Apprentice of the Year at our awards evening and is set to progress to full-time work with his employer, J Sidlow Brickwork after receiving high praise.

Our students have been having some fun making smoothies using pedal power. Today, the bike is outside of the Head of Studies area at Parsons Walk.

Make sure to have a go if you're walking by and you'll earn a delicious healthy drink too!

#GreenWeek GMColleges

For Green Week the Creative and Performing Arts students were challenged to 'Dress for the world you want', to see if they could take the pricey look of a celebrity, or to take on fast fashion by repurposing garments to create similar looks, thereby promoting sustainable fashion.

It was great to see staff and students taking part in a meat-free and milk-alternative day on Monday as part of #GMCollegesGreenWeek .

The tasty snacks and drinks went down a treat with everyone!

Many thanks to Willmott Dixon, TACE and Dodd Group who are with us today for 'Waste Not Wednesday' speaking to students and staff about the sustainable aspects of our exciting campus redevelopment and the green technologies being used. #GreenWeek
