community – a family who you can
have fun with and who are here
to support you. Everyone knows
your name and looks out for you. I
don’t think you would get that in a
bigger campus. I’ve got everything
I need here and I am looking
forward to my future studying
HND and then going to university
to do a degree.
I would like a job teaching because
I enjoy encouraging other people
to get fit. I am doing a Fatburn
Extreme Instructor course at my
local gym right now and that is
giving me experience of instructing
others. I will get the equivalent
of SVQ Level 2 Gym Instructor
on this course. There are lots of
opportunities for me to get a job
in this area. It’s important to have
a stable income and I feel I can
achieve that with this career.
I am the class rep on my course
and I like to make sure everyone
in the class is okay and we are
staying together as a team. When
someone is off I make sure I keep
in touch with them and help them
get caught up with work.
So what else have I been up to at
Irvine? We are kept busy with work
in the community. We do a lot of
volunteering with Active schools.
I enjoyed the time I helped out in
Largs with wheelchair basketball,
blind football at a disability
awareness day and a children’s
swimming gala. We climbed
Goatfell and raised money for the
Ayrshire Hospice.
