7DISAPPOINTING ACTIVITIES WEEKEND AT LOCAL COLLEGE
8Whitestone College has just held its first activities weekend .
9Students and local people were invited to attend courses in photography , painting , computer skills and local history .
10Unfortunately , the computer skills course had to be cancelled , because the teacher was ill .
11It was also a pity that nobody registered for the local history course .
12However , surprisingly , the photography and painting courses were very popular .
13The weekend cost over £ 60 , which many people felt did not offer value for money .
