<strong>City</strong> Travel agency re-launched<br />
<strong>City</strong> <strong>College</strong> has re-launched its travel<br />
agency, <strong>City</strong> Travel, in new premises on<br />
the second floor of Pelham Tower, Pelham<br />
Street, Brighton. The agency, which is<br />
open to the public, is owned and run by<br />
the <strong>College</strong> in partnership with Hays Travel<br />
and gives students on Travel & Tourism<br />
courses the opportunity to get real life work<br />
experience within a live travel agency. <strong>City</strong><br />
Travel’s offer includes short breaks, low<br />
cost flights, package holidays, cheap luxury<br />
cruises, long haul flights and tailor-made<br />
getaways. All educational/<strong>College</strong> trips are<br />
booked through <strong>City</strong> Travel and all profits<br />
from the agency are fed back into the<br />
<strong>College</strong> to support students in their studies<br />
and enrichment activities.<br />
“Students and staff are delighted with this<br />
bright, fresh and funky new look for <strong>City</strong><br />
Travel”, said the <strong>College</strong>’s <strong>City</strong> Travel Coordinator,<br />
Clare Embleton. “Not only will<br />
the agency continue to give students the<br />
opportunity to fine tune their skills and<br />
expertise, it’s also committed to providing<br />
an excellent service to staff, students and<br />
the general public alike.”<br />

Student Café success<br />
at <strong>City</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
A group of students on a short course at <strong>City</strong> <strong>College</strong> aimed at<br />
helping the participants develop skills to prevent them from<br />
becoming NEETs (not in employment or education) successfully<br />
ran their own café at the <strong>College</strong> and raised £100 for charity<br />
with their efforts. The ‘Enterprise Café’ Project was structured<br />
around the interests of the students while aiming to develop<br />
employability skills, confidence, team building plus awareness<br />
of their training and education options. The <strong>College</strong> now aims to<br />
repeat the success of Enterprise Café with plans to run two new<br />
projects along similar lines in the summer.<br />
