25.01.2022 We had our own Emmys moment last night at Palladian Drama! Congratulations to our two entries - Madhu Singh who received a highly commended for her monologue Lonely Girl and to our ensemble (Charlotte Anderson, Hannah Heading, Isla Hutchison, Lucy McHutchison and Izabella Rizzo) who performed Step Monster and placed. A brilliant evening, showcasing talented performers and performances. Thank you to our Drama Convenors Lucy McHutchison and Millie McKendry for organis...ing our students. Unlike previous years, last night’s event combined the solo and group drama competitions with each College putting forward two entries in either or both categories. See more

24.01.2022 On Tuesday night, for the first time since March, we were lucky to finally come together and share a meal as a whole College to celebrate the annual Formal AND Valedictory Dinner. We reflected on the year that has been, remembered friends who were unable to return this semester, and farewelled those students who will finish their time at College in December. Congratulations to the students who received the peer-voted women of the year awards:... Community Service: Charlotte Trent Cultural: Eleanor Foster Sports: Charlotte Raleigh Thank you to the Formal Committee for all their hard work and creating such a fun night, and to House of Cameo for capturing these special moments.

21.01.2022 Throwback to the Garden Party hosted by our Resident Assistants and House Committee. On Sunday 8 November, students attended a delicious picnic to raise funds for Lou's Place a community-based refuge for women in crisis, feeling isolated and needing support.

20.01.2022 We made it! It’s STUVAC and the college is quiet with students studying and preparing for exams. For many it will be their last exams ever or at least at Women’s. Remember to get some fresh air, take breaks, and get a good night’s sleep. Daily afternoon tea study snacks will be available in the Dining Hall. 2020 Valedicts
