Talented Reaseheath College trained landscape gardener Matt Beesley is to represent Britain in the WorldSkills finals<\/a> in S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil.<\/p>\n

Matt, who heard of his selection last week, joins the GB squad<\/a> to contest the global, Olympics style final, which runs from 11 \u2013 16 August.<\/p>\n

WorldSkills<\/a> runs the competition bi-annually for students aged 23 and under to showcase the skills and value of young professionals in worldwide industries ranging from construction, engineering technology and transportation to IT and communications and social and personal services.<\/p>\n

Off to Sao Paulo: Matt Beesley<\/p><\/div>\n

Matt, 21, completed his Level 3 Extended Diploma in Horticulture<\/a> at Reaseheath College in Nantwich in 2012. He now runs his own successful business, Beesley\u2019s Landscapes<\/a> in Winsford, and employs two apprentices. He first competed in the British selection rounds for WorldSkills while a Reaseheath student and has continued to train intensively as a potential squad member, narrowly missing selection for the world finals in Germany in 2013.<\/p>\n

In S\u00e3o Paulo\u00a0he will be one of two British landscapers who will test their skills and stamina in hard landscaping, plant knowledge and management against the world\u2019s best.<\/p>\n

Chris Shore Level 3 Extended Diploma in Horticulture competing<\/p><\/div>\n

The former Hartford High School pupil said: \u201cCompeting and training on the WorldSkills programme has been a fantastic experience for me. I have learned so much and gained such a lot of confidence. I\u2019d particularly like to thank my hard landscape instructor at Reaseheath, Jason Hinks, for his support. I\u2019m now totally focused on the world finals. It would be awesome to bring back a medal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Said Jason: \u201cI\u2019m really proud of Matt and how he\u2019s developed as a professional landscaper through WorldSkills. This programme is all about benefitting the students through training and helping them to realise their potential.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another team of Reaseheath horticulture students have begun the selection process for the GB squad for WorldSkills 2017, which will be held in Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n

Level 3 Extended Diploma in Horticulture first year students India Hill and Finin Talbot and second year student Christopher Shore have got through two elimination rounds which were run by the Association of Professional Landscapers. They will now compete at the three day semi-finals at RHS Flower Show Tatton Park in July, \u00a0in hopes of selection for the national final at The Skills Show, NEC Birmingham, in November.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
