At Havant College we are continually investing in our computer services and have developed a very stable computer network to cater to the needs of our students. There are currently over 750 networked computers available across the College. Every student has free internet access and email facilities. There is a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), known as Moodle, where you can access campus news, course information and social life activities.

The Studio Theatre is utilised throughout the year, primarily for the teaching of drama, dance and music, but also for talks & presentations, productions & concerts and for Student Union events. The Studio provides a blacked-out and intimate atmosphere for plays, theatre and performing arts work, whether for lessons, extracurricular activities or visiting productions.

This modern facility offers a wide range of indoor sporting facilities including badminton, netball, volleyball, basketball and cricket nets.

It is also used to host nonsporting college events such as presentations from guest speakers.

Open regularly throughout term time, the shop is a small but well stocked resource which supplies a wide range of stationery, course texts and equipment at competitive prices. Art and design materials are also available for purchase.

Students can access a wide selection of information, ranging from finance, travel and part-time employment to lifestyle, health and welfare issues.

Our Student Welfare Officer is available to help with personal problems of any kind and we also host a range of visiting organisations offering many different services and advice for our students.
