The 1st-year PM Graphic Design students have been busy bringing their ideas to life! 🧁🎢
For this project, students created bakery brochures filled with delicious branding, tempting visuals, and thoughtfully designed layouts. From charming neighborhood bake shops to trendy dessert cafés, each concept was uniquely crafted.
But the creativity didn’t stop there! Some students took on theme park brochures for Wes World, designing bold, high-energy layouts packed with attractions, maps, and must-see highlights.
Today, they proudly showed off their work, sharing the inspiration and strategy behind their designs. Sweet treats and thrilling rides—these students are covering it all! 🎨✨ #GraphicDesign #StudentShowcase #BakeryBranding #ThemeParkDesign #FutureDesigners

🧼✈️ Learning the Right Way to Wash an Aircraft ✈️🧼
Today our students were hands-on learning the proper way to wash an aircraft—because even cleaning is a critical part of aviation maintenance. From using approved cleaning agents to protecting sensitive areas and inspecting surfaces as you go, every step matters.
A clean aircraft isn’t just about looks—it helps prevent corrosion, protects materials, and gives maintainers a better chance to spot issues early. Attention to detail starts here, on the ground, building habits that carry into every inspection and repair.
Proud of these students for taking pride in their work and learning to do it the right way, every time. 💪✈️
