A quick note from your Freshers' President for 2011...
First of all, congratulations on getting an offer from Newnham! I’m Hannah Boyd-Jones, the Freshers’ President for 2011. The Freshers’ Committee and I are in charge of helping you settle in and have a very enjoyable and memorable Freshers’ Week.
Cambridge might seem a daunting prospect, but there’s no need to be apprehensive- within weeks you’ll feel like you’ve known your Newnham friends for years, and you’ll start referring to College as ‘home’- without even realizing you’re doing it.
There is a lot of information about Newnham on this website and after Results Day in August you’ll receive the Freshers’ Handbook, which we’ve carefully compiled to include everything that you need to know about Cambridge (including maps and packing lists). Also, join the Newnham Freshers' 2011 Facebook group- "Newnham College Cambridge Entry 2011"
If there is anything that you’d like to ask in the meantime; whether you’d like to request a favourite fancy-dress theme, say hi, or want to know anything about Newnham/Cambridge, feel free to email me at jcr.freshers@newn.cam.ac.uk
Best of luck with your exams, looking forward to seeing you soon!
Fresher love,
Hannah x
