New Year, New Oppertunities…
September 9th, 2011 Steve Another new year at Liverpool Community College welcomes a new batch of students, all very keen to start learning new skills. We also have the second years returning. Big year for them, sorting their portfolios and choosing universities. So I would like to wish them all good luck for the years ahead and hopefully producing some outstanding work.
We also have some exciting news to start the year. We will now be partnered with Bolton University’s Video Games Department. An excellent opportunity for both establishments and the students.
