Gratitude Day

Every March, the Council thanks the people who keep the University running — security, housekeeping, gardening and administration staff — ending with Gratitude Day, when the Council and the University Choir sing the Gratitude Day song.

Thank you — for the early mornings, the clean corridors, the safe gates and the gardens in bloom.

Infrastructure

The Sky Walk
