The whole school took part in a brilliant College Day this week!

At New College we enjoyed stories, art sessions and philosophy workshops; climbed the tower; examined the college archives and treasures; learned all about the chapel organ; and played in the beautiful gardens. We also visited the Weston Library for the excellent 'Oracles, Omens and Answers' exhibition; and investigated 'spring' on a stroll through the Botanic Gardens.

Many thanks to New College, Oxford University of Oxford Botanic Garden and Arboretum and Bodleian Libraries for making us so welcome!
