On Friday, 21 November, family, friends, and lecturers headed to CTU Training Solutions’ Potchefstroom Campus to attend the 2025 Visual Communications Exhibition of the final-year students.

Under the guidance of Ms Mareli Luus, the five final-year students presented an astonishing exhibition showcasing the talent and skills they have gained throughout the year. Classrooms were transformed into exhibition areas where students proudly displayed their work - ranging from a calming “zen den” to a vibrant neon light show.

Each year, the Visual Communication students showcase the portfolios they have built over the past year, but this year’s exhibition was particularly special. It marked Ms Mareli Luus’ final year, as she will be relocating to Pretoria at the end of the year to begin an exciting new chapter. A few tears were shed during her speech, showing just how deeply she loved working with her students and colleagues.

Attendees gathered around the snack table and grabbed beverages before heading to the various exhibition areas, where they stopped to interact with the students, asking about the inspiration behind the pieces, the mediums used, and their future plans. Each student spoke enthusiastically about their work, and all of them were beaming with pride.

Congratulations to the final-year students for putting on a fantastic show! May your futures be bright, and may the words of Ms Luus resonate with you as you embark on your new endeavours: “Go be the light, go inspire.” All the best to Ms Tamara Kirsten who will be taking the reins and stepping into the role of Visual Communications Lecturer in 2026.
