Creative Industries Open Day at Edinburgh College
Here’s something of interest to many of our leavers. Edinburgh College is holding an open day for programmes in the creative industries. It’s to be on Wednesday, 13 August, from 10 to 3. Here’s a great chance to learn the way forward in music production, the performing arts, broadcasting, or art and design.
Edinburgh College has several campuses. Find out which one to go to, for which field within creative industries, here.
Go along, meet the lecturers, and have an exciting time!
‘Talk About Teens’ — a chat group for parents from Edinburgh Council
Here’s something nice for parents and carers: a running series of informal coffee hours, just to talk over common issues faced by teenagers and their parents. It’s great for finding out a bit more about why teenagers behave the way they do, and getting up-to-date information on current issues for all young people.
These meetings are themed, as a rule. The next topic is, ‘What are the Options? Positive Destinations’. It’s about what opportunities there are for young people leaving school, and how it all affects benefits. It’s on Wednesday, 18th June, from 1.30 to 3pm, at the West Pilton Neighbourhood Centre.
For more information, or to book a place, call or text Jillian on 07860 736129.
