Cumberland Lodge are delighted to inform you that there are still a few places available for our annual International Student Christmas Conference, which will take place this year from Wednesday 18 December to Friday 20 December. Since only a few spaces remain, we are now opening these spots to local students as well.
Don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to experience a British Christmas in our beautiful 17th-century home, surrounded by the stunning Windsor Great Park.
Since 1947, we have opened our house to extend a warm welcome to students from all over the world, who are currently studying in the UK, to enjoy thought-provoking seminars and workshops, meeting others who are studying away from home.
Our interdisciplinary programme is designed to inspire discussion and debate, supported by guest speakers and facilitators. Our theme for this year is: Should we make Father Christmas green again? We'll be exploring innovative ways we can celebrate Christmas as well as tackling questions about how we can contribute to a sustainable future. For example, would you give up gifts to save the environment? should we go vegan at Christmas? and are reindeers a sustainable form of transport? The programme will also include:
- A Christmas carol service at Cumberland Lodge
- A guided winter trail through Windsor Great Park (weather permitting)
- A traditional Christmas dinner, complete with a visit from Father Christmas
- Festive evening games and entertainment
- Networking opportunities with students from diverse backgrounds
Prices include two nights of accommodation, all activities, and meals:
Single occupancy room with en-suite facilities: £300 per person
Shared occupancy room with en-suite facilities: £200 per person
To reserve your place, please email us at programmeteamcumberlandlodge.ac.uk as soon as possible, including the number of spaces required and your room preference.
