Award-winning calendar
Last week students from the Towards Independence group travelled to Clifford Chance in Canary Wharf for the Young Enterprise London final.
The students made it through to the final after impressing judges in the heats with their calendar. The team of students named their company the Creative Crew and they worked with the art department last term to create hand-printed images inspired by the group’s visits to London sites.
The calendar was an instant success with customers requesting to buy the original artwork and stocks selling out within days.
Creative Crew won the award for the Best Product. The students were delighted with their success and enjoyed the whole experience.
NewVIc students on BBC London News
BBC Olympics correspondent, Adrian Warner, recently paid the college a visit to speak to students about volunteering in the Olympics.
Recent promotion for the Olympics has encouraged volunteers age 18 and over to sign up. However, when London won the bid for the games it promised to involve volunteers from the age of 16.
Adrian interviewed a group of students about the subject to see if they felt the decision is fair. The piece was shown later that day on the BBC 1 London News. Click here to view the item.
Thank you to all the students involved; Patrick Oakman, Fresshia Mwangi, Matus Benko, Adam Loveday, Liam Solomon, Farhana Patel, Rouzana Rashid, Iqra Saleem and Iqbal Ali.
The coverage has prompted discussion in the media over the past week about the issue. Since the piece on the news, Olympic organisers have promised to also provide opportunities for young people age 16 and 17.
Students speak out about the election on the radio
During election week four students currently taking part in the A* media project run by NewVIc’s Circus Media were interviewed by BBC London radio.
The BBC London Radio bus took up residence near Stratford station and Moses Gumisiriza, Lawrence Atkinson, Julian Swaby and Luke Sharon were invited to give their views on the election.
