Students won stickers & pens for answering questions correctly & were given some fantastic resources for exam strategy and revision! . #personalgrowth
The Year 12 Hospitality class hosted an afternoon tea event for Service Users and carers from KASBAH Charity Kent, which supports adults with learning disabilities in Kent & Medway.
The event was also supported by our health and wellbeing ambassadors who set up and took part in craft activities with the service users before the tea.
The staff and service users form Kasbah said it was lovely spending time chatting with the students, all were very helpful and welcoming, and the food was amazing! . #personalgrowth #CommunityGrowth @RC_Southwark @CAFODSchools @medway_council_news
