Helping bring out science from behind closed doors: Confetti students lend their expertise

From Monday 6 to Friday 17 February, the Nottingham Festival of Science and Curiosity returns and this year Confetti students have designed the Festival magazine!

Oh no it isn’t! Oh yes, it is! Confetti BSc (Hons) Event Production students recently completed work placements with Nottingham Playhouse

The award-winning event returns on Sunday 29 January, raising awareness and funds for the rising homelessness crisis. In partnership with the festival organisers, we’re proud to have Confetti students involved supporting the planning and delivery of this year’s event.

Is your New Year’s Resolution to try something new in 2023? Well look no further, our friends at Young Creatives Nottingham are delivering a series of workshops in January and February.

Four lucky Content Creation students documented the recent “This is Nottingham” Teenage Cancer Trust show at our live events venue, Metronome. We caught up with first year students, Ria Reddy, and Aidan Douglas to find out what the opportunity meant to them.

Our students recently helped organise and deliver a series of Christmas lights switch on events in Nottinghamshire.

Confetti students can get free tickets to see the Amazon UNIVERSITY Esports Winter Finals on Friday 9 and Saturday 10 December. Find out about this year’s event and how to bag yourself some tickets.

In October, eleven of our students began their work experience placement at DHP Family. The opportunity provides them the chance to put the technical skills into action.

In the build up to Remembrance Sunday, on Friday 11 November we will mark Armistice Day with a two-minute silence at 11am

Confetti students and staff did us proud in showing appreciation of the contributions that people of African and Caribbean backgrounds have made to the UK over many generations.

Over 50 Confetti students supported this year’s Hockley Hustle Festival, racking up 400 hours of work experience. Learn more about the day and our students’ contributions.

Thank to the efforts of our Confetti tutors, course leaders and curriculum team leads, we’ve been shortlisted in the ‘Games or Esports Diversity Initiative in Education’ category!
