What’s happening this term? Happy New Year and welcome back to Excel College! Here are just some of the exciting things that will be happening in the spring term. Excel College has a brand new website! The website will make it easier for present, past and prospective students to find out about Excel College, our courses, accommodation and social activities. It’s online now so have a look and tell us what you think. We are welcoming two new teachers to the Excel College team—Loretta and Phil. Both Loretta and Phil have recently returned to the UK from teaching overseas (Loretta in the Philippines and Phil in Vietnam) and we’re looking forward to introducing them to all the friendly people at Excel College. Manchester will be as busy as ever. The National Beer & Cider Festival and the Spanish & Latin American Film Festival are coming to the city. We will also be celebrating Chinese New Year, St Patrick’s Day, Pancake Day and Easter. (Look out for the Excel College Easter Egg Decorating Competition at the end of term.) We will be going on more trips to famous Manchester sights including the Football Museum and the Manchester Museum. We will also be going on a bowling trip and for afternoon tea as well as enjoying the usual Film Club, Wii Club and 5-a-side football matches.
We want to get more past and present students involved in writing for the newsletter this term. Put your writing skills to the test! Want to review a book, film or restaurant? Love or hate something about Manchester? Want to give a big thank you to your favourite teacher? We’d love to hear from you. Email your stories, poems, Send any submissions to admin@excel-college.com
