She has taught over 100 students and we can confidently say nearly all our past students are practising massage.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These participants are working in day spas, are self-employed, provide a mobile service, work in hairdressers as masseuses, and in chiropractors&#8217; clinics.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All in all, a huge success.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ms Henschen\u00a0noted that some of the students congratulated today could not be present at the ceremony as they had already found jobs.<\/p>\n<p>Special mention was also made of the MoJo (mobile journalist) project which was undertaken as a literacy project earlier this year. A short video about the project was screened.<\/p>\n<p>Mr\u00a0Schwenke told the students &#8220;this is your day&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know how hard you had to work to get that bit of paper,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But it doesn&#8217;t finish here today.
