Student Clubs

Stand Out

Get the most out of your time at Coleg Cambria by getting involved with our clubs and societies. In any of the clubs listed below you’ll be learning new skills, growing your confidence outside the classroom and making new friends with people who share your interests.

We believe that education is stronger when paired with an enriching social activity. You’ll stand out much more on university applications and CVs than you will if your college experience only consists of attending classes. Make the most of your time with us.

Community & Volunteering

Make a real difference in your community with one of our most worthwhile clubs. You’ll be working with local organisations and community groups, volunteering in different areas and gaining valuable, often life-changing experience.

Be Your Own Boss

If you want to start your own business someday, you’re not alone. Lots of young people want to be their own boss, for many different reasons. You can do something you’re passionate about on your own terms, create the life you want and build something you can be proud of. Let us show you how.

Wellbeing

Make sure you look after number one with our wellbeing society. Benefit from accessing a range of activities that support your own personal wellbeing. The college will be supporting activities by working with you to develop appropriate spaces and resources.

Student Diversity

At Coleg Cambria we put Equality and Diversity at the centre of everything we do. If you want to be involved in promoting these values and celebrating diversity, join us. Make a difference.

Student President

There’s nothing better to put on your CV or university application than Student President. You’d be one of only two Presidents at Coleg Cambria, so it’s a very lucrative role! You’ll be a helping hand and an empathetic ear for all your fellow students and their comments or concerns. As well as that, you will:

lead on the Student Voice parliament once a year, making sure yours and all other reps’ voices remain at the heart of Coleg Cambria and are a driving force for the change you want to see
attend NUS events when we need you, where you’ll be one of the faces of our college, upholding our reputation

Student vice president

If you successfully apply to be a Student VP, you’ll be one of only five students lucky enough to secure this role. As a VP, a lot of your responsibilities will be similar to those of the class and campus reps, but you’ll also:

chair the campus council meeting, which will mirror many real-life board meetings, preparing you for actual scenarios in your future career
be the lead representative of all learners at whichever of the ten sites you represent
be a candidate for election as Student President, able to run a campaign of your own
become a candidate for one of two Student Governor positions, provide a CV and attend a selection discussion in the last week of term
attend NUS events when we need you, where you’ll be one of the faces of our college, upholding our reputation

Campus reps

You might prefer being a Campus Rep. You’d be one of twelve campus reps at your site, with all twelve reps usually becoming very fast friends. As a Campus Council Rep, you’ll have all the duties of a Class Rep, but you’ll also:

meet informally once every two weeks or so for around half an hour – these informal discussions will enable you to work with the Student President and other student leaders to influence college developments and recommend change where appropriate
attend two lunchtime formal campus council meetings a year with senior staff and a college governor – you’ll have the opportunity to raise matters discussed by the student body, new initiatives and any other relevant themes with senior staff whilst making recommendations for change
attend and contribute to the Student Voice Parliament once a year
represent Coleg Cambria and the student body at various events, such as NUS trips
be a role model for students of Coleg Cambria

Class reps

Be elected as a representative for your class to give a voice to your peers. You’ll receive training and support from the college in the first term to help you in your role. All you need to do is register to attend via the Student Voice website. As a class rep you’ll:

gather the views of your classmates and represent them at Student Voice meetings
help out at open evenings and other events, receiving a Student Voice t-shirt and £10 worth of shopping vouchers for your help
you can also be elected as a Campus Council Rep and a Student Vice President or President, with elections taking place just before the October break.

Frequently asked questions

How Do i Gather The Views Of My Classmates

You and other Class Reps will run a class meeting once a year with the rest of your classmates. This meeting is known as the Classroom Viewpoints meeting. You will need to make sure that the topics discussed in the meeting are written down. The meeting notes are then passed to your course tutor, who will then discuss them at their course meetings.

As a Class Rep, you’ll also take issues raised, if they’re not related to the course, to the Class Rep Meetings – held once a term. You’ll then get feedback from the course tutor and from the Big Class Rep meetings, which you’ll share with your group.

Is There Anything For This

In your first term, you and all the other Class Reps will be invited to the first Big Class Rep meeting. This will give you the information you need to get going – and there will be some fun activities to break the ice and help you get to know everyone.

You’ll also receive more training, which will include what to do with information your classmates tell you, and linking with Student Services.
