Thanks to everyone who came along to our Christmas party and made it a special day..

British Study Centres Oxford stepped back in time recently as we celebrated Christmas and the 200th anniversary of the birth of novelist Charles Dickens…

On Friday 2 December Oxford came to a stand still for a light parade and the switching on of the city’s Christmas lights. The city of Oxford loves a good party, especially the kind of party that entails the closure of the busiest streets in the city and draws crowds of thousands!

Bournemouth is gearing up for the Christmas season and since the school overlooks the town centre square, Bristol & West House is in a great position to see all the festive activities on show. There is a traditional Christmas market with warm mulled wine, stalls with unique gifts (perfect for Christmas presents), an old fashioned merry-go-round and not one but two mechanical Santas shimmying up poles and cycling on a high wire there is a wealth of entertainment on show…

Christmas is coming and that means that ice rinks are springing up all over London in interesting locations including parks, shopping centres and historical buildings…
