Modern Apprentice of the Year 2011
There was an extra special surprise for Nursery Assistant, Clare MacKenzie of Kilcoy Kindergarten as she was named as HiMATS Modern Apprentice of the Year 2011 and presented with this award by HiMATS Training Officer, Fran Polson.
Fran says "Clare has shown a real committment and enthusiasm towards her SVQ since embarking on the MA programme with HiMATS and is a model student. Her willingness to learn has been demonstrated through the work she has produced for her SVQ and the good practice she carries out within her nursery setting".
Ms MacKenzie is currently studying her Children's Care Learning and Development Level 3 award with HiMATS and is delighted with this achievement. She says "I am really surprised and happy at winning this award. After I have finished my SVQ I want to do some more short courses with HiMATS to keep me in the way of studying and help me prepare for beginning my degree in childcare".
Ms MacKenzie's manager, Katrina Reid said "We are really proud of Clare's achievements and all her hard work".
