Slideshow: College pupils told to ‘seize the day’
Each pupil keeps one of the files within school, using it to record achievements such as first aid certificates, recognition of good work, and sporting achievements.
These files are presented to the pupils before they embark on study leave, and this year the honour fell to charity representative Alistair Bennett.

His inspirational talk focused on the theme of ‘Carpe Diem’ or ‘Seize the Day’, encouraging students to follow their dreams and make things happen for themselves.
