Getting the Inside Track on Uni Life

The questions flowed fast and furious when a group of L6 pupils met up with alumnae currently studying at Cambridge University last weekend to help decide if it was the right place for them to study.

The former LEH pupils met up with current students over a lovely lunch at Corpus Christi College before taking them on a tour of the town and colleges and there was no shortage of interest and enthusiasm.

The alumnae were pleased to be able to catch up with some of their former teachers too, including Head Teacher Mrs Hanbury, Oxbridge Co-ordinator and Head of Chemistry Mr Hayter, Head of MFL Mr Russell, Philosophy, Religion and Ethics teacher Mr Lightfoot and French teacher Mrs Murray.

A big thank you to all the alumnae who attended and were so generous with their time: Zoe Shard, Class of 2021, now studying Classics at Emmanuel, and from the Class of 2020 Claudia Bridge, taking Medicine at St Catherine's, Natasha Crawshaw, studying Veterinary Medicine at Magdalene, Michelle Crees, doing an Engineering degree at Gonville and Caius, Zoe Starling, taking Medicine at Murray Edwards, Emma Radford, studying Nat Sci (Bio) at Gonville and Caius, Jessica Web, taking Medicine at King's and finally Aneshka Orme, Class of 2019, taking Economics at Murray Edwards.
