Sorry we have been a bit quiet lately! Yesterday we welcomed Paul from Snap-on industrial to speak to our students. Paul gave an insight into the history of Snap-on and where the company is now. Paul also discussed the offers available to full time students. A great afternoon all round.

Well what a great day that was enjoyed by all. Many activities were on offer and, as always, the tractor tours were a big hit. Thank you to all our drivers, Dave, Tom, Duncan, Matt and Ant. With thanks to Sarah and James for doing the trailer talks also.

A lot of effort goes into this event so to see the volume of people in attendance makes it all worth it. Special thanks to Liz Wagner in her assistance with preparations also.

Well done and thank you to all the teachers here at Duchy College, The Cornwall College Group, and around the world.

Teachers only spend a small amount of time in your lives but, can leave a lasting impression that you carry with you into your future careers.

If your currently in education or have fond memories of a particular teacher, reach out and let them know how much you appreciate them on

Thanks to all involved Tom Gill, Matt Dinnis, David Martin, Gary Price and Liz Wagner
