Oxford - Activities

What's on at Bellerbys Oxford

We always encourage students to develop themselves constructively in whatever way they wish.  If any student would like to suggest ideas for activities, clubs or exercises, we will do our best to support you in your efforts.  Our Activities Manager is dedicated to making sure you make the most of your time at Bellerbys College.

Clubs and weekly events

There are several student clubs at Bellerbys Oxford, from poetry to 5-a-side football.  In addition, from September to June, there is a weekly student social programme.  You can find copies of the programme on the notice boards in the reception and the common room at Bellerbys Oxford.

Regular events include ice skating, theatre visits, walking tours of the city and trips to see the local football team.  Other special events are held throughout the year, including a fun run, summer picnics in Christ Church Meadows and international food nights at the college.

Excursions

Students can also join trips organised by an experienced tour operator.  Tickets for these excursions can be bought from reception.  Full-day excursions often include trips to the university city of Cambridge, to the cathedral town of Canterbury and other picturesque cities, towns and villages.  These excursions typically cost from GBP 20-30.

Adventurous students can also join in on weekend trips - to destinations around Britain and overseas such as Scotland, Paris, Dublin and Amsterdam.  Prices vary but a typical weekend trip will cost around GBP 120 inclusive of travel, half-board accommodation and a sightseeing tour.

During the summer, the college itself organises a full programme of excursions.  You can find out more from Student Services.

"I’m living in the residence in a shared room. The residence is situated in the centre of the city, just three minutes from Bellerbys Oxford.  I’m really glad to live in the centre because it is very comfortable to live close to all city life - shops, night clubs, cinema and the sport centre."
