The inaugural Waikato Career Fair was a huge success!!!

Know Your Rights

On the day, at least 8 students were offered jobs and many eyes were opened to future opportunities and aspirations. The employers were impressed with the hospitality given by the Waikato campus and the level of students presented.

Thank you to all Waikato staff for supporting students, running the competitions and generally being amazing!

Know Your Rights Students volunteer for Hospice West Auckland

As Halloween draws nearer, the retail team at ASC have embraced the festivities and transformed Retail Therapy into a haunting (but still inviting) shopping haven for students and staff.

Merchandising is a key part of retail, and using the window and store space effectively is a key lesson for our retail students, in order for them to market their goods.

Coming of a Spring Fiesta theme for September, Octobers Halloween theme is primed and ready to go! So if you’re around ASC, pop in to Retail Therapy and say hi to the wonderful team ‌ and be wowed by their great customer service if you choose to buy something!

The ASC Hospo team have taken a different and fun approach to their budgeting skills. Sharon (tutor) has encouraged her students to learn budgeting in a more practical manner — through organising a High Tea for their families.

A fixed amount was used by the students to plan for the event. Students had to plan the menu, then the shopping list, shop for the items, prepare / cook the food, then set the venue up and then serve the guests.

Nerves were felt by some students but the experience was enjoyed by all. The guests had a great time and felt very spoilt and special.
