[exPOST] September 16th, 2014: CSL Freshers Party at Restaurant Bacchus

By on October 15, 2014

Posts in the “exPOST” category refer to past events. They are meant as a reflection of the Society’s activities and undertakings.

The Society was very pleased to welcome to its Freshers Party four undergraduate Freshers and one new graduate, who will be going up to Cambridge University from Luxembourg at the beginning of October. The party was held on Tuesday, 16 September at the Restaurant Bacchus in Luxembourg city.

This is an exciting – and in some respects a somewhat nervous – time for the students as they prepare for the great experience of living and studying in one of finest universities in the world. The alumni of the Society were able to chat to them about their own experiences, and to give advice. And we were very pleased that Alice Walpole, the British Ambassador in Luxembourg, joined us during the evening to speak to all of the students, congratulate them on their success in gaining admission to Cambridge, and wish them well.

Three of the Freshers are graduates of the European School: Emilia Radley, who will be reading Law at Queens’ College, Judit Talas (Natural Sciences at Churchill College), and Kristian Sutt (Law at Homerton College). Ben King, who graduated from the International School of Luxembourg, will be reading Law at Homerton College. Léonie de Jonge is a graduate MPhil student of Politics and International Relations at Pembroke College.

 

As the accompanying photograph shows, we all had a most enjoyable evening together at the Bacchus, and we look forward to staying in touch with the students during their time at Cambridge and afterwards.

John Speed, Secretary.
