Today was the final full day of the final summer school; a sad day for staff and students alike! In the morning students had individual tutorials, where they recieved final feedback on their work over the summer school. This was an opportunity to ask any final questions they may have had.
In the afternoon students had their final afternoon seminars in their chosen topics : Life as a Junior Doctor, Ethics and Philosophy, Current Affairs, Creative Writing and Environmental Studies.
This was followed by a barbeque in the garden. Despite rainy weather for most of the past week the sun came out just in time for our activities this evening! After the barbeque it was time for mocktails and the graduation ceremony with all of the staff. The summer school got the staff a lovely meerkat card which included all of the team as meerkats as well as chocolates which listed what students loved and hated about their time here (sorry guys, we'd change the rainy weather if we could!).
After this students had their "bop" - Oxford slang for a party. These are held in Oxford colleges several times a term and are usually themed. Classics dances like limbo and the macarena were popular, as well as a special summer school dance which involved lots of bopping and shimmying... Whilst some of the guys were a bit reluctant to join in the dancing, house mistress Sandra encouraged them and we saw some excellent moves from Aly and Ionut!
