Study Abroad Programs: Do More Than Just Study!

Autumn has come early in Cambridge this year. Across the UK people are digging out their coats from the back of wardrobes and swapping their flip-flops for boots. The days are beginning to get shorter and the school term is now in full swing – indeed, summer holidays are just a distant memory… But here…

Photography Group

The photography group met up yesterday afternoon for the first time this summer.

Ceilidh Night – A Scottish Tradition

When most Reach Cambridge students were told that the evening activity would be a Ceilidh, they responded with silence and a look of puzzlement.

One of the highlights every summer for Reach students—and any visitor to Cambridge for that matter—is the chance to punt on the Cam River. Frequently confused with a gondola, a punt is a flat bottomed boat that is propelled by a pole, rather than an oar, and thus can be great fun for novices to try…

Anglesey Abbey – An escape from the city

A few miles outside of Cambridge lies Anglesey Abbey. Originally built as a priory in the twelfth century, it has since been converted by the Fairhavens (a wealthy American family in the early twentieth century) into a stunning country house bordered by pretty gardens. The estate provided the students with a welcome retreat from the…

Bollywood Dancing!

The first Bollywood dance class was just intended as a taster for newbies to the wondrous hip shaking moves native to the Indian subcontinent. But it turns out that Reach already has many natural Bollywood dancers among its midst! Besides the hip shaking moves, the students learned the classic ‘turning the light bulb’ as well…
