Some students have taken part in a Paper Clothing competition for sustainability week,
They have created a variety of clothing items by using unwanted newspaper!
Why don't you give this a go yourself for a bit of fun and post your outfits below 😃🧥👚👗🩳

🤩These students became our Wellbeing Champions for #TheAviationAcademy, they will be developing and promoting wellbeing ideas and activities across the Academy and be a support for other student who may need it. Yesterday they had a small Wellbeing area with refreshments for break & Lunch ...times for students ⭐Well done everyone!!!⭐

Day 5 of #WoWWeek our final day saw another group of students explore FlyMe.co.uk. #TheAviationAcademy were joined by and give huge thanks to Ioanna for all things ground, Kris for all things sky and ex-students Lauren, Bethany and Madison who have all taken completely different paths than when ...they arrived at the Academy. Seeing these people blossom is what our job is all about. And for those who offered their services and we couldn’t fit you in, we will be in touch 😉.
For now, for 'WoW' we are ‘out’

#CravenCollege #WoW #WorldOfWorkWeek

#WoW day 4 was with ex-student Charlotte joining us with her tales of long haul flight, Elida with her bubbly personality and Flightworx Aviation explained their business.

To finish the day off we watched Jordan’s #Ryanair flight touch down from AGP on the runway before he hot-footed it ...around to the academy to explain his journey and reiterate that the only thing stopping your dream is yourself. Brilliant positive messages today 👍

#WoW day 3 - Some of our students went to FlyMe.co.uk and had a wonderful experience in the cabin and flight simulator. We love this place and to see how they have developed the student's experience over the years is amazing!
