Southport College would like to invite Year 10 and Year 11 pupils who are thinking about what they can do after school to try out one of their courses.

On Tuesday 9 February, Southport College's Open Evening will include taster sessions in a wide selection of their courses.

Tasters are designed to help pupils make informed decisions about what they'd like to study after their GCSEs. The workshops are run by industry-trained staff and offer pupils hands-on experience in the subject(s) of their choice. They will be able to take advantage of the facilities and professional training areas and get a feel for the College.

Potential students can build and fire their own rocket in the engineering workshop, learn how to style long hair in the hairdressing salon and create 3D models in the IT taster. Places on the 45-minute tasters are offered on a first come, first served basis. Individuals or groups can guarantee places by booking now. (See booking form for details)

At Open Evening, everyone will also have the opportunity to talk to course tutors in the Information Zone, quiz current students about College life, go on a tour of the Campus and enter a prize draw to win a £50 HMV gift card.

The College will be open to visitors from 5.15pm to 8.30pm.

Please contact Kathryn Carr, School Liaison Officer on 01704 392741 for more information and to book taster places.
