Harrow College welcomed new students to the College with Freshers’ Fair this week. The fair presents a great opportunity for students to familiarise themselves with the College and to make new friends before the start of the new term.
For two days at both the Brookshill and Harrow on the Hill campuses, students have learnt about College life and the activities available to them.
Students met representatives from different areas of the College, including the Student Union, Enrichment, the Bits & Bobs Shop, Learner Services, Health & Safety, Harrow College Environment, Clinic in a Box and the Harrow College Enterprise Society.
Businesses working alongside the College also attended the fair. Graham Clark of Barclays Bank said “we are building on the good work that the Barclays Bank Harrow branch has progressed with the College. This includes supporting education for general money management and the money skills initiative”.
Students enjoyed delicious food and drink samples served by Wilson Jones, the College’s caterers. In addition, Harrow Arts Centre encouraged signings for their membership list and the Raw Talent Academy promoted the forthcoming Employability Academy.
Phil Rowe, Director of Cycle Experience said “there is significant interest from students to cycle to the College. The majority of students recognise that further cycle training funded by Harrow Council would be a useful activity.”
Students can register online to receive free cycle training at www.CycleExperience.com/bookacourse. The fair provided an enjoyable experience with many students signing up for an array of College activities before the start of the new term.
