Hallam Senior College showed off its trade credentials with demonstrations and dinner.
The school showcased its Traditional Trades and Technology Sub School area to more than 100 guests at its second annual gala event on Wednesday 28 June.
Facilities within the Trade Training Centre include beauty and hairdressing salons, an industrial hospitality kitchen, and auto, furniture, carpentry, plumbing and electrical workshops.
Student leaders from the school took parents and community members from local schools and employers on tours and gave presentations and demonstrations.
The evening included a three-course dinner and door raffle with prizes donated from the staff and local community.
Head of Traditional Trades and Technology Scott Kirkby was thrilled with the community turnout and participation in the event, which was designed to recognise student excellence in the area and invite the community to share in student success.
