I am always pleased to be invited to attend an award ceremony as it indicates that a great deal of work and achievement by both the students and the organisation and tutors. I was therefore pleased to go to Newbury College’s Graduation ceremony on Thursday 6 December. On arrival I met Dr Anne Murdoch the Principal of the College and was introduced to members of the Governing Body, tutors and other guests, amongst whom was Richard Benyon,M.P. who would be presenting the certificates.
Anne Murdoch opened the presentation evening with a welcome speech in which she praised both students and her tutors who had worked hard to get so many through their courses. There was a wide range of subjects in the presentations; accountancy, health and social care, marketing, quality assurance, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, computing and teaching assistants foundation degree. Richard Benyon congratulated them all on their achievements, particularly as some had full time jobs as well as well as studying and completing course work. There were two further presentations; the first was the Vodafone Award 2007 by David Danielli, the Vodafone Group Community Manager to Chris Scott awarded his BTEC HNC in electrical engineering. The second was the Newbury College Outstanding Learner Award 2007 presented by Tony Allen, chairman of governors to Emma Newman, studying Quality Assurance.
After the presentations, we all left to go into the Refectory for a buffet supper which gave us all the opportunity to meet the graduates It was a splendid evening and my congratulations to all the students and staff for all their achievements.
