Next Wednesday is going to be our final event of this academic year – we’re off to Longleat for the third and final part of the Triwizard Tournament. In case you missed the announcement, the Triwizard Tournament earned us Runner-Up Most Imaginative Event at this year’s Societies Awards, so obviously you’d be mad to miss out on this.

If you’re coming on Wednesday, we will be meeting outside Central Station at 10am so we can catch the train. (Breakfast beforehand at the Prince of Wales or something is also a possibility, too!) If you’re coming, please respond to the email I’ve sent with your name and mobile number so we have everyone’s contact details. Don’t want to be losing anyone while we’re out and about. We’re planning on bringing food for a picnic, you’ll need money for taxis between the station and Longleat and please take the lovely British weather into account when deciding what to wear! But you’re all big boys and girls, so I probably don’t need to tell you that.

See you soon!

The committee is delighted to announce that at yesterday’s Societies Awards 2009-10 we not only won runner-up Most Imaginative Event for the Triwizard Tournament, but we also won Best Webpage.

Thank you to everyone in the society for making this such a fantastic year for us. Here’s to hoping next year is even better.

We’ll be bringing the trophies along to the end of year meal on Tuesday so we can all enjoy them for a bit.

We are here at the 2010 Societies Awards. To our delight, we have been shortlisted for both Best Webpage and Most Imaginative Event (The Triwizard Tournament).

Thank you to everyone who made this year so great.

Stay tuned to see if we actually win!

The games night part is pretty self-explanatory. That’ll be starting at about 8ish. Before that, though, we’ll be having a meeting – starting at 7pm – to try and sort out the core committee for next year.

So if you want to help run the society next year, please come along. This will also be a chance for people to give feedback about the society in general.

Also, if you haven’t already, please go and vote for our People’s Choice Social where YOU get to decide what we do.

We’ve also got another poll to find out where people would like to go for our end of year meal. Please vote for that, too, so we can book tables!

Here is our post-Easter schedule for the 2010 spring semester. We’re hoping to get the date for the final Triwizard Tournament task to you as soon as possible.

People have been asking, so we thought we’d let you know that details about our third and final Triwizard Task are coming very soon. It involves a trip to Longleat and potentially getting lost in a maze, so the committee are definitely looking forward to it.
