Sadly, the time has come to say goodbye to our third and final cohort of the summer. What a two weeks it has been!
Students began the day with mixed emotions, excited for the final day of the program, but sad that it is coming to an end. Classes ran in the morning as usual, with students and teachers able to reflect on their time together, and discussing the key takeaways from their classes. The students were awarded certificates for their hard work and dedication over the past two weeks!
Everyone then had a quieter afternoon to do some packing, whilst those who missed out on punting due to Taster Courses earlier in the week, had a second chance to take a trip down the river Cam! We then all came together at the College dining hall to have dinner as a whole group for one last time before the party kicked off!
Following the final college dinner, the students gathered at our disco venue, for an evening of celebration, music and dancing!
But before the music, our programme coordinators Temi and Samy awarded students with fun awards, nominated by their supervisors, including the “most enthusiastic”, “best dressed” and the “sleeping beauty”. The students were then able to see a roundup of the program on a photo slideshow, which captured the events and activities, as well as group photos of the students. It really showed the students how much they have done, and the fun that has been had over the course of the program.
Whilst students were having a boogie on the dance floor, others made friendship bracelets, enjoyed some refreshments, and chilled out at the casino table. A perfect end to our final program of Summer ‘24!
As curfew approached, the students said their goodbyes, before making their way back to their own colleges, with many having an early start to catch Reach’s Heathrow Express! We have had such a blast with our final cohort of the summer, and we cannot wait to hear what you get up to in the future. Goodbye, Program three. We will miss you!
And with that, sadly Summer 2024 is brought to a close. We hope you have enjoyed keeping up with what’s been happening here at Reach Cambridge, so thank you for reading, and until next year, goodbye!
