    ๐ŸŒŸ Our July Upskills was a big hit! ๐ŸŒŸ We kicked things off by getting creative and engaging all our senses in our very first Floral Arrangements Workshop with the wonderful Gail @floralteambuildingandevents. Participants walked away with stunning floral creationsโ€”and a new appreciation for the art of floristry! ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒฟ ๐Ÿ’„ In our Beauty course, students explored the world of skincare and cosmetics, learning facial techniques and makeup skills. โ˜• Meanwhile, in Cafรฉ & Customer Service, students put their hospitality skills to the testโ€”taking orders, making milkshakes and mocktails, and serving up smiles to their parents! ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅค ๐ŸŽจโœจ With creativity flowing and pencils in hand, the Character Illustration & Design students explored what it takes to develop a unique characterโ€”from personality to visual style. By the end of the session, each student had brought their very own character to life! ๐Ÿ‘พโœ๏ธ ๐Ÿ’‡โ€โ™€๏ธโœ‚๏ธ In our Hairdressing Workshop, students got hands-on with the art of blow drying, styling and straightening โ€”learning the foundational skills needed in the salon. A big shout-out to all the participants who brought their enthusiasm and curiosity to every session. We love seeing you build confidence, try something new, and have fun while doing it! All the workshops offered provide a pathway to commence a SBA and complete your HSC at CathWest.
