What better way to gain a motivational push through hand in dates during semester one assignment period than being able to look forward to a trip away! Winchester Student Union invites you to join our tour of the cosmopolitan European city of Amsterdam. An opportunity to visit one of the most unique and desirable destinations in the world, with both a thriving night life and rich cultural heritage to draw visitors by the millions.... Take Canal tours, bike ride around the city, take part in massive bar crawls and visit the famous Heineken brewery and museum. A perfect way to end third year before people go their separate ways, or perhaps a celebration that you and your course friends survived first year freshers! For just £159, you could be on your way to this beautiful city in the Easter Vacation of 2014 from the 28th April to the 1st May. The price includes coach transport, channel crossing and Bed & Breakfast. The deadline to book on to the Amsterdam Tour is the end of this month, November, so make sure you visit http://booking.ilovetour.co.uk/groupname/winchestersocietiestour/ to book your place or e-mail [email protected] for more information. *Please drink responsibly http://www.drinkaware.co.uk/ *Please note you must have an SA number to go on this trip. Check out the Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/#!/events/345014908967061/?source=1 With deadlines looming we hope that
students are finding the balance between work and play whilst in the first semester. Just a few tips to make sure that studying goes smoothly as we all know that sinking feeling when you lose part of your essay or project due to technology or the library is closing before you have a chance to finish your work. Therefore, please be aware that if you open up a piece of work from an e-mail, continue to work on it and then press save, any changes you have made will be lost! To avoid losing work, ensure you have saved the attachment to your documents or a memory stick in a new name. Also, Tom Lowe the Vice President of Education has secured the return on the 24 hour library in semester 1, weeks 11 and 12, Monday to Friday! The 24 hour library will also return in semester 2 for upcoming dissertation deadlines. If you have any queries or worries about work please do not hesitate to contact student services who offer a variety of help from spelling and grammar workshops, to managing stress. Alternatively come and speak to one of the exec officers or Tom Lowe, Vice President of Education, if you have any issues regarding your course or work schedule. In the meantime, remember to take breaks from working, assignments don’t mean you can’t enjoy what else is going on around the university. Plan your days efficiently and Good Luck! With that Friday feeling quickly approaching, make sure you have your tickets to Flirt! Maybe you’ve spent the week hiding in the library, kkb or learning café? Take a break,
and head down to Winchesters biggest Friday night to round off a week of hard work at Uni. Not only will there be free Shots on Arrival, Mega cups served in Traffic Cones and chart topping music to get your night going, this week Flirt will play host to The University of Winchester Mens Rugby Club charity auction. Kicking off at 9pm, come down and support the guys as they auction off some of their top players from the 1st Team Captain, Connor Mitchell, 1st Team Vice Captain, Charlie Preston, to the Club Chairman, Connor Breen ,who are yours to do with what you wish for the remainder of the night if you are the highest bidder! Other players, who have bravely put themselves up for auction to raise money for charity include: Toby Salmon James Ward Alex King Neil Squibb Seb Purvis Jamie King David Fayle Josh Mitchell Phil Roynon Jones Remember; visit the Box Office, before 3pm today and tomorrow to buy your tickets. You won’t want to miss out, Flirt! With a Rugby Twist. *Please drink responsibly http://www.drinkaware.co.uk/ After a successful fresher’s fortnight, Varsity, Playmates week and many Bops and Flirts, we at the Student Union would like to think we have welcomed both Freshers and returners to The University of Winchester in style.
