Welcome to the Fifteenth Edition of our SELLL UG News for July, compiled by Caroline Ede, with contributions from Professional Services (PS) colleagues in the School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics.  This is a special edition including dates for your diary and some useful reminders.  Also look out for our revamped monthly newsletter which will be coming soon.

DATES FOR YOUR DIARY

Wilde’s Importance of Being Earnest – streaming from 2 July to the 16th July 2021
NUTS (NU Theatre Society) have collaborated with the national charity Acting for Others and the Sunderland Empire to develop a unique production of Wilde’s Importance of Being Earnest (the acts of the play are interspersed with original content relating to the life of Wilde)that will be available through streaming from 2 July to the 16th July. Tickets are on sale now and all details are on the attached press release.

As Louisa Rimmer, a SELLL second-year student and President of NUTS says, “It is the biggest project that the society has ever executed, being directed, produced, filmed, edited, acted, and marketed all by Newcastle University students, in an effort to raise as much money as possible, so I would be so grateful, along with the rest of the society, if you fancied buying a ticket or sharing the event with anybody who you think might enjoy it!”

Graduate Photography Events – 16th July 2021
If you have signed up for one of these events, just a reminder that the timeslot allocated for all SELLL programmes is Friday 16th July 2021 from 9am-1pm and further information is provided on this link.

GIVE IT A GO Summer 2021
This year has been like no other, but the Give It A Go team has continued to come up trumps with a fun and action-packed programme and we’ve seen some great activities along the way! We’ve tried our hand at Zoomba Zumba, live virtual experiences with Kielder Observatory, online exercise classes and enjoyed the return to in-person activities like surfing! But it’s not over yet, we still have some Fun Activities and Exciting Tours coming up with Give It A Go this summer

Fun Activities – Tune into our Instagram and Facebook accounts where we’ll be posting regular activities for you to be involved in. From exercise classes you can do in your own time, to craft tutorials, language lessons, and summer baking ideas – we’d love to see you involved!

Exciting Tours – Our fantastic tour partners Lundgren Tours are delivering a fun summer programme to visit our favourite places in Northumberland and beyond! These are always great experiences and an opportunity to visit beautiful places, whilst learning all about them.
