Prospective students can meet their future professors, ask questions and learn more about Fleming College during their Spring Open House running this Sunday.
The Open House will be held at the Sutherland, Frost and Haliburton Campuses from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Each campus will have information about financial aid, residence, off-campus housing, and post-secondary life in its communities.
Visitors to the Sutherland Campus can check out the vast array of services available to students, from accessibility to diversity and inclusion services. A self-guided tour of the Peterborough Sport and Wellness Centre is available and attendees can chat with current students about their experiences in various programs.
At the Frost Campus, Arboriculture students are putting on a tree climbing demonstration while the Fleming Phoenix Loggersports team will showcase their talents. Visitors can also check out insect, wildlife and fish displays. Guests can enter a contest and win a chance to blow up dozens of watermelons during an explosive demonstration of Fleming’s Blasting Techniques program.
The Haliburton School of Art + Design encourages all visitors to participate in live demonstrations and interact with Fleming’s students and instructors during Open House. Future students can check out the student art exhibit in the Great Hall and walk along the adjacent Sculpture Forest Trail.
Those interested in pursuing a career in firefighting can visit the Eastern Ontario Emergency Training Academy in Norwood and talk to the faculty, staff and students who make up Fleming’s Pre-Service Firefighter Education and Training program.
