Party time! – The Dunn School celebrates the summer

The department came together to celebrate the summer with a family party in the University Parks on Sunday 16 July 2017.


The annual event featuring a BBQ, bouncy castle, games and music was enjoyed by over 200 guests. This year had a particularly sporty flavour with the addition of a five-a-side football tournament and volleyball.  The football tournament was a draw between the Raff and Maloy labs. 


Head of Department, Matthew Freeman praised the organisers of the party drawn from the Site Management Group and the postdoc and graduate student communities. He said: “the summer party is enjoyed by members of the department and their friends and family and always runs smoothly. My thanks go to the organisers and especially to Wayne Swan, Pete Stroud and Philip Cobden who worked tirelessly on the day itself.”  


With only the slightest mist of rain for a minute or so, the head of department’s fine weather guarantee held for yet another year with highs of 25’c and light cloud cover.
