On Friday, July 14th the members of SI Newcastle upon Tyne and SI Sunderland who had been involved in interviewing students on the Project Choice programme in Gateshead and Sunderland were invited to their graduation ceremony. Two members from both clubs were able to attend. We were all impressed by the progress the students had made over the year and realise what a valuable contribution it had made their development towards adulthood.

 

Linda Selby, Course teacher, coordinated the proceedings.
