JULY Activities 2009
…to The Oxford English Centre! Here is the Social Activities Programme we’ve organised for you during your stay in Oxford.
In this booklet you will find details of all the activities planned for the time you are here. There is an activity on most days in the morning and/or evening. Please check in advance what you will be doing each day so you know where and when to meet and what to bring (e.g. sports gear). Please see the attached sheet for details of Saturday excursions. On your first day you may be shown some of the useful sites and MEETING PLACES around Oxford. The main meeting places are Carfax Tower and St. Mary’s Church. Please remember where these are! SPORTS ACTIVITIES: please bring sports clothes and trainers. And finally… It is very important that you carry your STUDENT CARD AT ALL TIMES. Without it, you may not be able to take part in some social activities. The weather and the programme may change. Keep checking the Social Activities Notice Boards!! Important: All students under 18 must return to their host families by 22.30 If you have any problems or questions, please see Verge our social activities organiser or call him on 077948093614
