Penguin Project

QE’s Travel and Tourism students recently enjoyed a visit to Stanhope Barrington primary school in Weardale to complete an event management unit as part of the course.  The students worked with 36 Reception students, and delivered a day of activities based around Christmas and penguins. The students planned, resourced and delivered the session, to the delight of the young children.  Activities included Christmas card making, snowman cakes and penguin decorations.  The students worked together as a fabulous team, and the children had a brilliant day.

Teacher Carol Stidwell says ” This is a link that has been built up over a number of years, and the pupils look forward to the QE students visiting.  QE always produce an excellent event and it’s a highlight of our year.”
