We are delighted to share the following news of our alumni. Please do get in touch if you would like to include an update in the next issue.

It has been an exciting year: A joint service with Girton Choir, an Evensong at St Paul’s Cathedral, a performance at the annual Charter Dinner and a tour to Iceland!

Michaelmas 2023 has seen unprecedented levels of Homerton success in sport. Not only have our teams continued to prove to be worthy opponents in collegiate competitions, but we have also seen a plethora of Homertonians excel at University level

How to introduce the story of Homerton Library in 2023? Once upon a time? However, life is not a fairy tale. It’s very clear that, on reflection, the common thread woven through this year’s tale is that people and their stories inspire change and help shape our community.

This has been a year of team building and personnel change for many of Homerton’s departments. As you’ll have read elsewhere in this publication, one of the most significant is that Dr Penny Barton will retire as Senior Tutor on 1 January 2024.

2023 saw many developments in the Tutorial side in College. Our new Wellbeing Team was established with the arrival of our new wellbeing lead (Grace Hernandez) and later her Assistant (Claire Hogg): together they have been able to develop a wide range of initiatives for both students and staff, experimenting to see what ‘lands’ with the different cohorts.

Now more than ever, I’d like to think that I am getting into my stride as Principal at the best academic college on planet earth, Homerton.
