Most of you will be moving out of
Connaught Hall for the end of the academic year over the next two weeks; a few
have already gone.
Wherever and whenever you are travelling,
I wish you a safe journey. I hope you have the chance to enjoy a well-deserved,
relaxing break from your work or studies this summer, and that your
accommodation plans for summer and next year are starting to come together.
It genuinely has been a pleasure to have
you at Connaught Hall this year. I hope you have enjoyed your time here as much
as I have, and that we have succeeded in our wish to be your home-from-home in
London. Thank you all for making it such a pleasant year in Hall!
I hope we have promoted a spirit of
neighbourliness and togetherness all this year in Hall, and that this is an
attitude that we can all take with us when we move on to other, wider
neighbourhoods and communities.
This year has not been without some
hiccups, I know, in the building fabric of our Hall, yet in the residents’
survey, we were still the intercollegiate halls with the highest satisfaction
ratings by a long way. The credit for that goes to everyone who has lived here
this year and made thousands of contributions, small and large, to making this
place a friendlier, safer, better place to live.
I am delighted to say there are far too
many of you for me credit you all individually, but I do especially want to
thank this year’s Residents’ Club Committee and Senior Members for all their
hard work in organising a social programme for the Hall and keeping our bar
running as a valuable focus for Hall social life.
