Individuals and teams across Easter Bush nominated by their peers Congratulations to all the winners and nominees in this year’s Easter Bush Campus Staff and Student Recognition Awards. Organised by the Campus Experience and Culture Committee, the Awards recognise contributions made by individuals and teams to campus culture and areas outside of the traditional measures of ‘excellence.’ Staff and students nominated their peers in a wide range of categories and the winners were announced by Head of School, David Argyle, at a special ceremony. I feel privileged to work with such an inspiring group of people, who are committed not just to their work and study, but to creating a supportive and positive campus community. Well done to everyone.
