Welcome to Medway

One thing I sooooooooooooooo enjoy is working alongside my university colleagues to welcome new students to the UK and to help, in the smallest of ways, prepare them for their time here.

Throughout the day a variety of people presented information on cultural issues, visas, health care, safety, finding work, etc.



We had 37 new Masters students in attendance, many of whom are in the UK for the very first time.  

Here the students look a little overwhelmed and nervous but our desire is that they will soon be happy at their choice of university and course; and that they will find ways of overcoming all aspects of culture shock and homesickness.


Thanks Katie for letting me be part of these great days!! Thanks too to Saka, Tashfeen and Juhi who took part in our student panel; and to Aiste & Vincent to gave tours of the campus.
