First Formal Hall of the Spring Term

On Wednesday 5 February, the students, staff, resident tutors, fellows, and leadership team of Morningside College gathered in the candle-lit dining hall for the first formal hall dinner of 2025. The Master of Ceremonies was Season Lam, a Year 1 student from the Faculty of Science. Season welcomed College Master Professor Nick Rawlins to the stage, who wished everyone a happy lunar new year before ringing the ceremonial gong to announce the start of dinner. A diverse four-course meal was enjoyed, with the hearty main dish a choice of pork ribs, seared salmon, or vegetarian lasagna followed by a delicious strawberry panna cotta to end the night.
