Labyrinth Light Trail
The long-awaited opening of the new Labyrinth has arrived, and we're lighting up the path for one night only on Wednesday 7 December, 4pm-6pm, in the Chaplaincy Square (behind Senate House). Experience its twisting turning path for fun, take a reflective approach with a guided walking sheet to help you look back at your journey this term, or take the Nativity walk.
Share a Christmas Message...
It’s not just the fairy lights that will be twinkling at our Christmas Lights Switch On event, we hope you'll be shining too. We’re looking for festive stars to grace the Big Screen with your Christmas video or text messages. So give the gift of a cheery message, and help fellow students and staff feel happier than an elf in a toyshop.
Christmas Lunch and Hangout
We know some of you are not able to make it home over the Christmas break and might be missing family, and nothing soothes your spirits quite like a roast dinner. Join us for a traditional Christmas Lunch on Tuesday 13 December, 1pm-2:30pm, at the Dirty Duck. We'll be feasting on a Yorkshire pudding wrap with your choice of turkey or veg with cranberry and all the trimmings! For dessert, indulge yourself with a warm chocolate fudge cake or winter fruit filo strudel with custard. All for £1.95!
You can also stick around for our Christmas hangout from 2:30pm-3:30pm where we’ll play some games and get to know each other.
If your mouth is watering, book your seat for lunch here.
