Icy Conditions

Well the new term is well under way and despite the cold snap outside, the Wood Workshop here at Chelsea College is being warmed by the usual energy and enthusiasm of our students. A steady start has seen students from various disciplines in with us making a wide variety of work. It's been a welcome warm up to what we anticipate to be a very hectic term. Below are some images taken from the past few days.
