Learners Week - Thursday

Today was the busiest day so far during Learners Week, with lots going on at the Red Star centre. Eugene from Friars Bridge was signing up staff for the NVQ's (many people were surprised how easy the NVQ could be), Graham from Lewisham College gace a presentation on the new ITQ's (Information Technology Qualifications), Caroline gave Taster Sessions in British Sign Language, and the turntable was kept busy all day copying people's vinyl onto CD's. There wasn't much time to take photographs, but I've managed a few.. and don't forget that your last chance to visit us during Learners Week is TOMORROW (Friday) - don't miss out!

Thursday

Well to-day so far has been very busy, and "Monkey" has returned from his trip. I am suprised that so many union reps have turned up to find out what we were about, word must be getting out at last. We are still looking for RUL Reps so if anyone out there would like to become one contact us. We also had a few people that have signed up for NVQ's and ITQ so its looking very positive.

Learners Week - Wednesday

Today has been another fun day at the Red Star Centre, with 21 people people making use of the facilities. Many people bought LP's to be converted onto CD, some have signed up to Basic IT Skills or British Sign Language courses, and others have just come in to see what's going on. Everyone seemed impressed, and the best is yet to come! Tomorrow we have the NVQ Roadshow, introduction of the ITQs, and also the Sign Language Taster sessions. Come along, have a drink, have fun, and meet the team!

Learners Week at the RSLC - Day 1

It's been a really good day at the Learning Centre, 16 people came through the door today, some for computers, sign language and key skills. Everyone said it was very friendly and fun to learn. We are still open from 9am - 4pm for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday this week, so feel free to pop in for a chat, coffee, swap books and find out what's going on. Keep the centre going - it's here for YOU to use!

Adult Learner's Week

May 21st to May 25th is adult learner's week, and the centre will be running activities all week. We are providing free refreshments throughout the week and putting on some innovative events. For instance, you can learn how to say "No ticket, no travel" in BSL sign language. You can bring in your old favorite Vinyl L.P. and have it converted to CD or MP3 format and then learn how to print the label on a lap top computer. (We expect you to do a skills for life assessment in return!)
We look forward to seeing friends and colleagues again, and meeting lots of new learners. Please do try to drop in if you are in the Medway area. We are beside Chatham Railway Station in the station car park. It should be a fun week, so try to get along! All the best,
The Red Star Team
