Spring 2020 Newsletter from Wellpark College

2020 – WHAT A YEAR

It’s certainly been a challenging year for everyone and we wanted to say a massive “Well Done” to our students who, throughout the lockdowns, embraced online learning via Zoom and continued with their studies. We have some amazing tutors and staff at Wellpark College who rose to the challenge and enabled classes to continue. Teaching Neuromusculoskeketal Anatomy Classes to our Massage students and finding things like bony landmarks via Zoom was certainly interesting as were completing assessments for the Foundations of Herbal Medicine at home for our Naturopathy students, but we all pulled together and made it happen. As we go into Term 4 we are delighted that our students now have the option to be back on campus and studying together.

NOT ALL CLASSROOMS HAVE 4 WALLS

As we head into Spring our Naturopathy Students have been busy in the College gardens. Seedlings being planted, herb beds being tidied, composting bins being sorted and a worm farm set up so that we can recycle the College kitchen waste and turn it into liquid fertiliser to use on the college gardens.
