✨ May Ball 2025 – A Night to Remember ✨

On 23rd May 2025, our students celebrated the end of the academic year in true Cambridge style at the Cambridge University Arms Hotel — one of the city’s most iconic venues — for a dazzling May Ball evening.

The May Ball is a ...cherished Cambridge tradition dating back to the 19th century, known for its elegance, celebration, and unforgettable atmosphere. Dressed in black tie and gowns, our students enjoyed an evening filled with live music, dancing, fine dining, and plenty of laughter.

It was a magical night to mark the achievements of the year and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Thank you to everyone who made the evening so special!

Cambridge offers an abundance of opportunities beyond the classroom, and we wholeheartedly encourage our students to explore the city’s rich cultural landscape during their free time.

One standout destination is the University Museum of Zoology, located just a 20-minute walk from our ...school.

This remarkable museum showcases a vast array of fascinating exhibitions—from the awe-inspiring 21-meter fin whale skeleton suspended in the Whale Hall to intricate insect collections and rare fossils. It’s an exciting place where students can delve into the wonders of the natural world and ignite their curiosity.

We believe that learning extends beyond textbooks, and visits to institutions like the Museum of Zoology provide invaluable experiences that complement academic studies.

Who says learning can’t be an adventure?

Our Geography students regularly head out on field trips to explore real-world environments, from rivers and coasts to urban centres.

Field trips aren’t just a treat, they’re part of the lesson. It’s hands-on, minds-on, and way ...more fun than sitting still!

Learning happens where theory meets experience — and that’s what makes it so fun and memorable!

One of the best kind of learning is the kind you can see, touch, and experience.

Punting in Cambridge – A Quintessential Experience 🍃

There’s nothing quite like punting on the River Cam to capture the spirit of Cambridge. As you glide past the majestic colleges, under iconic bridges like the Bridge of Sighs and the Mathematical Bridge, you’re immersed in ...centuries of history, academic excellence, and natural beauty.

For our students at St Andrew’s College Cambridge, punting isn’t just a tourist activity — it’s part of student life. Whether enjoying a sunny afternoon with friends or taking a relaxing break during exam season, punting offers a unique way to unwind and see the city from a different perspective.

From the river, you’ll witness Cambridge at its most picturesque — trailing wisteria, gothic spires, and students reading under willows. For newcomers, it’s a perfect introduction to the charm and tradition that define life in Cambridge 💫
