- Ayla Bray - Making a positive contribution award
Matt said "It was wonderful to be part of the
celebration; I had a chance to chat with all the award winners.
"Once you realise what's possible with a bit of hard work and
nouse you can apply it to your whole life, not just your college
work. I think it's intelligent people who get the
clever people to work for them!"
"I'm really happy but I don't know how I won!"
said Ayla Bray, a Uniformed Public Services
student, won the award for 'Making a positive
contribution'.
Her tutor, Nigel Pumffrey, had a better idea. "Ayla's quite
brilliant. She's always one of the first to
volunteer for any extra activities involved with her
course."
What next for Ayla? "I'm taking assessments to join the Special
Constabulary, and waiting for a vacancy to join the
police."
Listen to a short interview with Ayla at the awards.
Harry Fellowes, a winning Motor
Vehicle student, said "it's been a really nice night, I feel
very proud of myself.
"I'm studying to get the highest dealership I can for an
Apprenticeship - I'll need some luck but if I work hard I'll make
my own luck.
"I did the best I could and the hard work has paid
off!" said Hair & beauty student Amelia
Haddad.
"Now we're in the new salon, there's so much
space; everything's well-organised, colourful and
lovely!
"There's lots I'd like to do - I'd like to work with people
with disabilities, or maybe in music. I can apply what I've learnt
here to everything I want to do."
