September Career Course - day 19 and 20 - The Final Day

The final two days of the course always carry a mix of emotion... excitement at producing final interpretation pieces tinged with sadness and apprehension as the students realize only 2 days remain...

The school is a safe haven that they have to leave... we had our final morning cuppa and sticky bun before excitedly unwrapping and conditioning the flowers that the students had ordered for their final wedding designs.

Its always a surprise at just how long the conditioning takes and it was lunchtime before we knew it...
Over the afternoon and the following day the students worked very hard on perfecting their designs. We'll let the photos do the talking but we think you'll agree that from a planted orchid four weeks ago they've come a long, long way....  

The students we're thrilled with their own wedding designs and we took some great styled shots for their portfolio.

Although the students were sad to leave they were also very excited to be launching their own business too! We will of course keep you updated on their progress but until then it's farewell to our September students... we wish them all the very best in their new adventures......
