The SA Growth Hub workshop concluded with two meaningful days of hands-on learning, personal growth, and shared experiences. Supported by the College of Hospitality and Tourism Management, the CHTM College Student Council, and the Student Development and Welfare Office, this livelihood program created a warm and empowering space for student assistants to discover new skills and build confidence through baking.

During the first day, participants immersed themselves in the art of baking. They learned techniques, explored ingredients, and experienced the joy of creating something with intention and enthusiasm. Every whisk, mix, and batch fresh from the oven became a reminder that learning is most meaningful when it inspires both growth and purpose.

The second and final day welcomed another group of enthusiastic learners. With the same spirit of curiosity and collaboration, they continued their baking journey and found fulfillment not only in the pastries they created but in the connections formed and the memories shared. The workshop encouraged students to view baking not only as a livelihood skill but as an expression of creativity and personal development.

The College of Hospitality and Tourism Management and the CHTM College Student Council extend heartfelt appreciation to all the participants who embraced the experience with openness and dedication. The SA Growth Hub stands as a reminder that empowering students begins with opportunities that cultivate skill, confidence, and community.
