Welcome to new students

We introduced a new student induction project some years ago which has been a huge success. The aim of the project is to help students get to know each other and some of the key cultural sites around the city while working on a creative project. The best projects are awarded prizes. Click on the 'Welcome to new students' above for a link to this year's Induction Project and the Bag It! project.
