It will be a day to remember for about 60 graduates, but an even bigger day in the history of Easton College as it dons its finery for a first ever congreg-ation ceremony today.
It will be a day to remember for about 60 graduates, but an even bigger day in the history of Easton College as it dons its finery for a first ever congreg-ation ceremony today.
There will be regalia and pomp to mark the inaugural ceremony and a momentous year for the Norfolk college.
In the past, students have had to travel to universities for the formal presentation of their degrees. But an exciting new relationship with UEA means Easton College can celebrate graduation day within its own walls.
There will be a procession, led by a mace bearer, from the college's Jubilee Centre to the sports hall for senior staff and UEA visitors.
They will be followed by the key academic leaders who will take their places in the ceremony before the formalities begin and the parchments are presented by pro-vice-chancellor Trevor Davies.
Chairman of the governors Sir Nicholas Bacon, who will open the proceedings, said: "This is a momentous day for Easton College and for Norfolk.
"It will be our first Graduation Day for University of East Anglia awards at Easton College - a tremendous achievement for the college staff and the students involved."
The history of the college is based on its role as a land-based teaching centre and that was something it had successfully retained while also extending into a much wider world of education.
College principal David Lawrence said: "It is a particularly proud day for our graduates but an equally significant day for everyone else attached
to the college."
The name Easton College was not introduced until 1991 but the roots of the education centre go back to the early 1920s.
It became the Norfolk College of Agriculture and Horticulture in 1974. But it now also has specialist areas in environment, animal science and welfare, design, sports and public services.
In the past year, it has opened the second stage of its Jubilee teaching complex, along with new sporting facilities - an investment exceeding £3m.
Another teaching building is planned to allow room to take on more students.
