M2 Language A Trip - Tuesday, 20th September
As part of the Language A Language & Literature course M2 students have to complete a project on a "connection" at the British Library and so will visit the library on Tuesday 20th September to participate in a workshop. Students will leave from Dwight Campus at the beginning of period one and return in time for lunch. If they wish to bring a packed lunch, they may. We will be using public transport and so all students MUST have an Oyster card with sufficient funds to get them to and from the library.
