Farnborough 6th Form College at Winston
Students from all year groups had the opportunity to visit the Farnborough 6th Form College stand, in the hall, at lunchtime today. Students were able to collect some literature about the college and discuss with the representative the opportunities available.
Demonstration of Bread Making
This
demonstration was after the class had previously all made an adapted yeast
based dough. All three students then were chosen to lead part of a lesson. The
class were attentive and made notes while watching the demonstration. The successful
outcomes were demolished with gratitude and the students received much praise
from their peers.
Esme Pesto & Cheese Twist and Berriman and Darley demonstrated Fruit& Mixed Spice Soda Bread.Young Carers
On Tuesday 31st January parents of our young carer students
were invited to Winston for a coffee morning in the Churchill Suite. This was an opportunity to meet with Mr
Ludlow and Mrs Hinchley, our family support
workers, and Eileen from Surrey Young Carers
to advise them of how we aim to support
these students in school and for them to ask any questions they may have.
The event ran very well with eight students in attendance
and around 10 parents. We spoke informally with all the parents about how we
aim to support the students in school and strategies we were looking to put in
place. Parents made comments such as ‘it’s so lovely to hear there is support
for these students.’
It was very well received by all the parents and students. Games and refreshments were made available
to all which went down very well.
This was a great success and a fantastic way to start our
journey to promote Young Carers at Winston and encourage these students to be
proud of the excellent job they do!
