Dear Parents, welcome back for more tips and notices from Mercy Beaumont.
Thanks to all the parents who came to the PTM and the Parents Network last week. We appreciate it is not easy to juggle work and home life And thank to those parents who attended the workshop on photoshop run by Mr Hyland. They all enjoyed it and there will be another workshop following on after the midterm.
The Mapmaking workshop was postponed until after the midterm. If you would like to participate just text or call me at 0861857703.
I made a visit to Whitehall College yesterday with some parents who were inquiring after courses that could help them enhance their current skill set and open up their employment prospects. Whitehall college not only takes in school leavers but it has courses for adults wanting to change job, get back into the workplace or develop an interest or as an entry into university. The entry requirement vary but mature students are assessed through interview.
Whitehall College of Further Education offer day courses to school leavers and mature students. The courses run for approximately 9 months; this facilitates the development of good practical skills, personal development and depth of learning. The majority of courses at Whitehall College offer the learner the opportunity to achieve a major QQI award at level 5 or level 6. If you are curious, they are running an Open Day on the 11th of March from 10am -3pm.
