Barnet and Southgate College celebrates the Diamond Jubilee

Diamond Jubilee fever hit Barnet and Southgate College with different departments organising activities in the run up to the Holiday Weekend

The LLDD (Learners with Learning Difficulties and/or Disabilities) Department kicked off the Diamond Jubilee celebrations by hosting a lunch party in the garden of the Grahame Park Campus  on Wednesday 30 May. 

Students and staff were welcomed to the party by a dance performance of the "Lambeth Walk", performed by the Express Yourself group, followed by a royal treasure hunt.

Each guest recieved a royal cup cake, which was produced in collaboration between the Home Skills group and the Catering and Hospitality Department .

As the party came to an end, Head of Supported Learning Charles Nelson led a toast to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth on her Diamond Jubilee. 

Elsewhere on the Grahame Park Campus, staff and students from The Salon , the College's hairdressing facility, dressed in red white and blue for the whole week leading up to the Holiday Weekend. The corridors of the newly-decorated Salon were decorated with Union Jack bunting and everyone got into the Diamond Jubilee spirit.
