Our award-winning hospitality team is celebrating again ๐
Just months after winning a national award for training restaurants of the year, one of our exciting new #chefs, Toby, has been awarded the title of, South West Student /Apprentice of the Year.
Collecting his award at a glitzy ceremony, among industry professionals, at the @SWChefComp awards, held @exetergcc, Toby said:
"I genuinely couldnโt have felt more supported by the college. The entire teamโs generosity is unmatched. Winning the competition felt surreal. I was so caught up in the moment, I could hardly take it all in. Iโm thrilled to have made my family and friends so proud."
Our Level 2 full-time #ProfessionalCookery student works @ThePeterville in St Agnes and they were delighted when Toby also scooped the coveted culinary award for 'Best Showcase of Regional Ingredients. @michaelcaines #hospitality #Cornwall
