We kicked off the week by welcoming Belinda Mindset to campus, where she delivered an inspiring and engaging session for our Hairdressing students ๐ฅฐ Throughout the workshop, students explored the differences between mindset and mental health, fixed and growth mindsets, and the impact of positive and negative self-talk. They also learned about stepping outside their comfort zones, building resilience, practising gratitude and affirmations, as well as useful techniques for journaling, problem-solving, stress management and overall wellbeing. Our students were extremely grateful to Belinda for her time and we can't wait to see her back at WLC soon! ๐
To celebrate National Fitness Day, our Level 3 Sports students welcomed Frank Hughes, Chairman of Skelmersdale United Football Club for an insightful guest talk about the football industry โฝโบ๏ธ Franked shared the club's history, reflected on previous successes, and provided a valuable overview of the day-to-day running of a football club. The session offered our students an excellent opportunity to broaden their understanding of the wide range of careers available within sport, including roles such as professional athletes, football coaches, club chairpersons and many others. A huge thank you to Frank for providing an engaging and informative talk to our students!

It has been a fantastic start to the new academic year for our Early Years Education students, who have been showcasing their creativity as part of their initial assessments โบ๏ธ Students selected their favourite childhood story and brought it to life by creating a themed storybook box inspired by the characters, settings and key themes. They also designed their own โIdeal Early Years Practitionerโ flower, with each petal representing the knowledge, skills and behaviours they believe are essential for becoming an outstanding early years professional. These engaging activities have encouraged students to reflect on the qualities needed to support and inspire young children in their learning and development. Well done to them all ๐
