This residential summer school will give lifelong learners the extraordinary opportunity to experience something of Cambridge student life in the context of a programme specifically designed for adult learners from around the world.
Girton is one of the larger Cambridge colleges and is set in beautiful grounds with excellent facilities, including a gym and indoor swimming pool. Ultimately, Girton is a wonderful place in which to meet other lifelong learners in comfortable surroundings and as part of a friendly community.
Going into its sixth year, this summer school enables participants to take academic courses for the love of learning; live and take meals in the College (including traditional Formal Halls and Afternoon Teas); have a pretty full and exciting social programme to get the most out of being in Cambridge; and go on visits to the National Gallery in London and to the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, the Queen’s much-loved country retreat. In sum, it is a fantastic opportunity to spend one or two weeks experiencing the highlights of Cambridge college life in the company of other lifelong learners from around the world!
