Adam Smith celebrates success!

Adam Smith College has recognised forty-nine students at its prestigious 2010 Skills Awards ceremony held in June.

Over 200 people attended the Awards which are sponsored by a number of local and national businesses and organisations including Fife Health Board, Raith Rovers and Babcock Rosyth. New sponsor this year was Lomond Homes who presented to the best construction student.

Guest speaker was Gavin Hastings, former Scottish Rugby Captain who congratulated the award winners and encouraged them ‘to prepare to win’ in whatever career or pathway they chose next.

Gavin said, “The award winners are wonderful role models. I am a fi rm believer in following your dreams and that great success is not born but made.”

The Overall Student of the Year Award went to Karen Drummond from Freuchie who studied HNC Early Education and Childcare.

Adam Smith College Principal Dr. Craig Thomson also praised and congratulated the students and emphasized the importance of their success to Fife’s economy.

“The new economy that we develop here in Fife in this second decade of the 21st century will emerge through learning and as we congratulate our award winners, we should also be wishing them well with the great adventure of creating and developing that economy.”
