RUNSHAW College celebrated piloting a road safety initiative - by keeping its students off the streets and in the kitchen.
The Langdale Road, Leyland, helped Lancashire police and Lancashire County Council test out its Right Start programme in the college to see if it will prove a winner across the county.
The scheme has been adopted by schools and colleges countywide, giving the college cause for celebration - so they baked a cake!
But that's not the only high-profile event going on at the college, which marks its 25th anniversary in September.
As an early celebration of the occasion, the college held an Environment Day to promote awareness of the green surrounds at the Leyland campus.
Various events were held, including street theatre and pavement art, but the highlight was the planting of a time capsule.
Runshaw is also embarking on a new strategy to preserve its wooded campus for generations to come.
Two students who are working hard to preserve the environment are Michelle Forell, 17, and Sarah Marsh, 17.
Both will be spending the summer in Chipping stonewalling - helping to repair the stone walls in the Forest of Bowland.
They will join three other Runshaw students on the trip. The intrepid A-level students will stay in a barn for their holiday, based at Saddle End.
Their holiday is part of the Natural Break Conservation Holiday Scheme and also counts as the students' work experience.
Students still in college have access to extra facilities - thanks to the Intranet, an internal internet system.
A mini English web-site has been launched, giving students the chance to learn more about the texts they are studying via computer.
