The Buzz Weekly Newsletter Week 23
Welcome to Week 23 of The Buzz Newsletter!

It’s Week 23 of The Buzz Newsletter! Well done to 6th Year student Thomas Sheehy who won our wellbeing ‘Sparking Joy’ photo competition 2024/25. It was hard to pick a winner as so many of your entries made us smile but it is also hard to deny the pure joy on Haky’s face! And yes, Haky’s cake was made with dog friendly ingredients! Congratulations to 4th Year student Anna, who was the winner of our Wellbeing week Poetry contest 2024/25!
