Pre-vocational Bricklaying Competition

Friday 17th May 2013 saw the first Incorporation of Mason’s Pre-vocational Bricklaying competition with two entrants each from City of Glasgow College, North Glasgow College and South Lanarkshire College. The students were all on courses which would hopefully lead to employment in the construction industry.
Staff from the three colleges had designed the competition and each college had allocated a lecturer to attend as umpire and judge. The Construction Industry Training Board also sent along an Apprenticeship Officer to act as judge and umpire and he was most impressed by
all that he saw.
The winner of the competition was Ian Ferguson, aged 18 years and from Kirkintilloch near
Glasgow and a student of North Glasgow College. All the competitors’ work was to a very high standard, but Ian’s was that bit better.
Runner up certificates were awarded to:
Craig Campbell of South Lanarkshire College
Brian Feeney of City of Glasgow College
John Paul Higgins of City of Glasgow College
Ryan Martin of North Glasgow College
Terry McCafferty of South Lanarkshire College
The competition was a great success and plans are underway to expand the number of colleges participating in next year’s competition.
Photographs of the competitors can be seen below.
