What a joy to welcome 49 students from across Wales to our Seren Summer School. Across 2 Humanities and STEM-focused streams, they received lectures from University academics, explored the Ashmoleum and Natural History Museum, and even had an ice cream at G&Ds 🍦📚👯
Congratulations to all those receiving A-Level results today. However you're feeling today, well done on all your hard work and we look forward to welcoming many of you to New College later in the new year!
