Diploma in Public Service. Progressing to an Apprenticeship in Lifeguarding.<br />
I wanted a career working with <strong>and</strong> helping the public so the<br />
college’s “ course was perfect for me. I’ve had lots of opportunities to<br />
experience new activities. The staff are brilliant, they treat you like<br />
an adult <strong>and</strong> are always there to help you. There are lots of great<br />
facilities on campus from IT suites, learning resource centres <strong>and</strong><br />
even a gym. I’ve had a fantastic <strong>time</strong>.<br />
