We've had an usual variety of activities that I'll try to cover in this one blog post!
First up we had a cupcake decoration session, which led to some really creative designs. Actually, I wouldn't want to eat some of these they looked so good! (It didn't actually stop me though, what can I say? Student services makes for hungry work).
One of our students, Markus, from Switzerland has been volunteering his services as a qualified Zumba instructor. We've had two sessions so far and are planning one a month until Markus leaves us in March.
To cap it all off, we made a visit to Oliver Cromwell's house in the historic Cambridgeshire city of Ely. Oliver Cromwell is a controversial figure in English history and was Lord Protector of England after he had our King executed! You can read more about him here, I also suggest looking into the whereabouts of his severed head, which is now located somewhere in the grounds of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge.
Very interesting stuff for those of you who are interested in English history...
Well that's everything for now, check back next week for something a bit more festive!
