Bellerbys Cambridge Graduation Day – 25th May 2007

Despite the rain on the days leading up to it, Graduation Day in Cambridge dawned bright
and sunny and the students made their way to a marquee on the grass at Queens Campus
for the official ceremony.

John Rushton, Principal, presented certificates to students leaving the college in June, with the assistance of John Carey, Rima Page, Richard Loader, Andrew Davis and Denise Tarczynski.  Special awards were presented to three students:

• Ning Xiao from China - Student of the Year
• Shang Ming Tan from China - Contribution to College Life, Manor Campus
• Valentina Permyakova from Russia - Contribution to College Life, Queens Campus

After the ceremony, refreshments were served by our catering team led by Barry Blakesley, Facilities Manager.  In the evening, the students met up at The Garden House by the river Cam for a Graduation Party.

The following is a report from one of the departing students, Sergey Rachkov.

"25th May, one of the most important days of my life – graduation!  Graduation for most students means that we can all progress to our chosen universities and continue to further our education. Also it means that we have to leave and say a few goodbyes.

The Graduation Party was a great opportunity to say goodbye to our friends and members of staff at Bellerbys College.  The Graduation Party was awesome and I really did enjoy it. Everything was just great – the place, music, food, people..."
