Up until now...

 Firstly a big congratulations to Andrej, last week's Student of the Week!

Well done Andrej!
 Saturday's excursion was to London. Due to the fact that we had a couple of students who had been with us for the whole summer, we ran three different trips in London. the first, for students who had not been to London with Studio before was the sightseeing trip with a walking tour from Westminster to Trafalgar Square and then time in Covent Garden for shopping. The second, to Oxford Street in the morning and then to Cromwell road to visit museums  in the afternoon (The Natural History Museum, The Science Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum). The third trip was to Oxford street for a couple of hours in the morning, then a walk to Covent Garden to visit the London Transport Museum. After the London Transport Museum, there was a short walk to the Hunterian Museum at the Royal College of Surgeons before taking the tube to Cromwell road to meet the coach. Here are some photos from the day:

On Sunday we had no new students but many left. Luckily we had a trip to visit the famous King's College to brighten up the day:

On Monday evening, students had the chance to go swimming. Tuesday was punting:

On Wednesday, we played board games and practiced our English in doing so and last night was very creative with students making masks, designing bags and t-shirts! As well as all that, there was a trip to Grantchester for Cream Tea. Unfortunately we didn't get any photos due to the weather deciding to be typically English!
