Into the Classroom with P&P then Back in the Kitchen!


 "Color Me Next.... Please!"

P&P students learned the importance of Color Analysis during their Personal Grooming/Wardrobe Workshop with Ms Kelly.

Knowing how to choose the “correct” colors for clothing will allow you to:
Create a healthier, more attractive appearance
Draw attention to you, not to your clothing or the colors themselves
Eliminate costly color errors when buying clothing



Chef Berlin wanted to know his colors too!


The students learned about skincare, they used a facial scrub to exfoliate
the dead skin cells. They were taught how eating a healthy diet contributes to healthy skin


 The session ended with a steam facial done with a towel
domed over their heads in total silence. This was also a
a lesson in releasing stress. They asked if they could do it every week
