After a busy year of visits, events, celebrations and generally being a very good boy, Toby has decided it's time to enter his summer era. 😎

Swapping meetings for naps, deadlines for deckchairs and emails for treats, he's fully embracing the holiday vibe. His plans include soaking up the sunshine, chasing the occasional squirrel and carrying out some highly important picnic inspections. 🐿️🍦

As the academic year comes to a close, Toby would like to say a huge thank you to all our students, staff, families and partners for making it such a fantastic year. It's been full of achievements, memorable moments and plenty of reasons to wag his tail.

For now, Toby has claimed the best seat in the house, activated his out-of-office bark and is busy living his best life. 🏖️🐶

Have a paw-some summer, everyone — see you in September! ☀️👋🐾
