2nd Skills Training Day (27th February)

This week 7 more NEWA build students attended the MBCC for a basic skills training session.Once again the students were shown by the apprentices how to mark out, drill, counter-sink and rivet a piece of aluminium.

It was a great experience and a day to remember. Great activities on offer to do too. I enjoyed every minute of it and learned a lot especially drilling in the pipes- Jason Crockett

Thanks a lot for the opportunity to learn new and valuable skills, I really enjoyed the whole day and learned a lot. I specifically enjoyed the riveting and drilling the pipes as I've never done this before- Lewis Gough

The day was really good, as the chance to see what real engineering is like and to be involved in a small part which they do was brilliant- Matt Hart

The students ended the day by getting the chance to saw down pieces of metal tubing, mark out the tube and drill through it.
