Graduation joy for King's Lynn students




It was a day of celebration for scores of West Norfolk university students as they received their degree certificates.

The University Centre West Anglia’s graduation ceremony took place at Lynn’s Corn Exchange on Saturday, with many of the successful students taking part in a parade through the town centre as part of the occasion.

A total of 112 students completed higher education programmes at the centre, on the College of West Anglia’s Lynn campus in Tennyson Avenue, this year.

And college principal David Pomfret said three quarters of the graduates had achieved either first or upper second class honours.

He added: “Our HE students have sacrificed much to achieve success, but with the support of their family, friends and ongoing support from staff they have overcome many obstacles.

"Our graduates should be extremely proud of themselves and what they have achieved.”
