Buffalo City TVET College N6 Public Management students recently embarked on an educational visit to Bisho as part of their practical learning experience, aimed at exposing them to the working environment and providing valuable insight into the responsibilities and duties they can expect to undertake in their chosen field.

During the visit, the students had the opportunity to explore two key institutions, namely the Office of the Public Protector and the Eastern Cape Provincial Legislature.

At both institutions, students attended informative presentations delivered by representatives from the respective offices, who shared valuable insights into their roles, functions and operations. The students were also given an opportunity to engage with the presenters, ask questions and gain a better understanding of how the knowledge and skills acquired in the classroom are applied in the workplace.

The visit provided an important learning opportunity, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical workplace experience while preparing students for the professional environment.

Through initiatives such as these, Buffalo City TVET College continues to encourage experiential learning and equip students with the knowledge, exposure and confidence needed to transition successfully into the world of work.

Buffalo City TVET College hosted the Rising Chef Competition, themed “From the Garden to the Kitchen.” The programme is spearheaded by Agri Africa Development (AAD) and aims to highlight the important connection between agriculture and culinary arts.

Five Buffalo City TVET College students participated in the competition, showcasing their creativity, culinary skills and passion for the hospitality industry. Through their participation, the students demonstrated an understanding that every meal presented on a plate begins with what is grown in the garden. The competition highlighted the importance of linking the garden, kitchen and plate, creating a holistic understanding of the food value chain. Buffalo City TVE College is proud of the students who will represent the college at Provincial level in 2027.
