Alumni News

This term our alumni have been involved in a very exciting collaboration with the student writers who put together articles for The Heathfield Vine, the college newspaper. Click here to read the latest issue: http://heathfieldcollegenewspaper. weebly.com/

Year 13 student Bethany Cassé edited the fantastic edition that included interviews with alumni studying a variety of subjects at university, post-graduates in a range of fields, and also alumni who had taken alternative routes into their careers. With career pathways including law, architecture, health and safety for Historic Royal Palaces, working in film and TV, and more, there was something to spark the interest of all readers. A huge well done to Bethany and all of the writers who put together such a brilliant read to inspire our young people, and a thank you to all alumni who contributed.

The alumni team are also pleased to start preparations for our summer event again this year. During July we are inviting alumni into college to speak to our Year 12 students about their experiences since leaving. Whether that leaving date was last year, 5 years ago, or more, we would love to involve as many alumni as possible. The event consists of group talks led by alumni about university life and courses, gap years, apprenticeships, and career progression across a breadth of areas, and also a carousel event that facilitates meaningful encounters that support students' knowledge and choices for the future.

If you are a Heathfield Community College alumni and would like to be involved in this event, please let us know by filling in this short google form https://forms.gle/s9dAWGCbeSeHtAnXA or e-mail dtaylor@heathfieldcc.co.uk.
