Then three became four! Four brave members of the Rockley Team are shaving their heads to raise money for the wonderful charity Julia's House Children's Hospice.
You may be forgiven for thinking they are a tad crazy for making this decision as we prepare to enter the bitterly cold winter months but Liam, Aaron and Josh our BTEC practical co-ordinators and Mini, our French Operations Manager have all made sure that a bobble hat is on this year's Christmas list!

It may have been a very fresh -4โ start in Birmingham this week but that didnt stop the Rockley Bartley team getting The 261 Scout group on the water to go kayaking and sailing.
They even used their time on the water to hold an investiture for one of the scouts. #FridayFeeling #RockleyBartley

Great team. Lovely location and very knowledgeable staff. Good course and good tuition.
Great place with lots to do. Well worth a visit on a sunny day.
From the introductions to the parents at the school, to the finish of the adventure these guys were fantastic. As a parent that specialises in Health and Safety I was impressed by their organisation and communication skills that as a parent gave us peace of mind and clear directions on what kit was required and what the children would be doing. It was clear that they knew exactly what was required and their knowledge shone through. Daughter came home full of excitement and had a wonderful time full of experience and confidence. what more can I ask. A first class school trip Highly Recommended (S Gregory. South West Training Limited)
