Hi postgrads!
It may be coming to the end of undergraduate term time, but for us postgrads the work doesn’t stop! Next week, campus will clear of a lot of activity and may feel quite empty for many of you, but don’t worry - we have a load of events going on throughout December so you’re not feeling too lonely!
On Tuesday 11th, we have our last PG Pub Quiz of 2018 - come and join us in The Graduate from 7:30pm for some festive competition! On Wednesday 12th, we also have our Christmas Craft-tea party. Join us in Curiositea from 4pm; tickets cost £2 and include craft materials, tea and cake. You can purchase them here!
Thursday 13th December sees a double dose of events! Firstly we have Postgrad Connections from 4.30pm in The Graduate. This month, there is a workshop on Imposter Syndrome – if you feel yourself doubting your abilities and achievements, then come along and hear from Wellbeing Services all about this issue, and how you can cope better. As always, there’s food and drink, plus a chance to chat to other postgrad students about Warwick life. You can reserve your spot on our website.
Afterwards, head downstairs to the Atrium for the Postgrad Christmas Party! Run in collaboration with the PG Hub, we’re bringing you all the festive cheer with mince pies, mulled wine, Christmas crafts and quizzes, and even a Reindeer Rodeo! Tickets are £2.50 if you purchase in advance, so book now on our website.
Then to round things off, on Tuesday 19th December we have our Christmas Lunch! This is open to Postgraduates, International Students, and anyone else around on Campus. We will be in The Dirty Duck from 12pm Noon, with tickets costing £5 for a 2-course meal or £6 for a 3-course meal! You will need to purchase tickets beforehand, once again via our website.
Hopefully this is enough for you to keep occupied during December!
See you soon,
Ellie.
