Welcome to Friday
Hello All, you would have received an email early this week to say our next Dining Hall experience is next week – 31st of March – Please bring a plate and fork and a spoon next TUESDAY – Thank you (Sorry if there was some confusion but our date changed – but the email reminder is the correct information)
