My story:

Una loved the facilities that Truro College had to offer, including access to Macs and studios, and was given a corner of the White building to create and paint in. Una said: “The White building is unlike anything I have ever seen. The College gives you more freedom, which I believe creates a better learning environment.

“When I visited on the Open Day, the College seemed like a creative and amazing space to learn. Especially the Art department.

“You can make many friends at College, even by just being on the same bus.

“The teachers care which means a lot to me. I’ve noticed how attentive, considerate and lovely they are, especially when you do a variety of courses.

“Further into your studies you will put your new skills into practice and use them in a way that suits you.”
