Students demonstrate their potential at showcase event

We were thrilled to welcome guests to RNC at the end of March for a special showcase event. It was a fantastic opportunity to share the work we do at the College and give visitors a real taste of College life. Guests toured the campus, interacting with staff and students, and witnessed a diverse range of activities.

 Highlights included:

• a look into the world of Braille.
• how assistive technology enables the use of industry-standard software such as Microsoft 365.
• how students get creative both in their academic studies and in art and textiles.
• watching students in action in the Audio Media Suite.
• an introduction to sports for the blind (Goalball and Blind Football).
• enjoying the relaxation of students at work in the Massage and Complementary Therapies Department.
• ASPIRE students showing their fun side making chocolate rice crispy cakes and edible slime.

A core focus for the day was demonstrating our students' independence and adaptability. We showcased how they are learning to confidently navigate living, working, and travelling, ensuring they can thrive on their own terms.

Everyone at RNC loved sharing their passion and expertise, and we were so pleased to see our guests enjoying the experience. We hope they left with a deeper understanding of the incredible potential of our students and the work we do here.
