Hi everyoneNormally the basic skills courses end during the summer holidays and recommence in September. This year the Lifelong Learning department have had funding to continue their service with us through the summer holidays. Please can you pass on this information to anyone you may feel benefit. Even if people are attending basic skills in other venues, they may feel that they could benefit from attending extra classes during the summer with us.
The class is every Monday from 1 – 3 p.m. and anyone can drop in to attend. An assessment is completed on arrival to see what level to work at and then continue to work at their own pace. The subjects are Maths and English – entry level, up to Level 3.
Also we have an IT beginners class commencing on July 28th for 4 weeks, FREE of charge. Times: 10 – 12:30 p.m.
