FEES OUT LOUD!

Tuition Fees Meeting - what happened? An AA Radio report on the fees meeting between AA students and AA director Brett Steele, President of AA Council Alex Lifschutz, and AA Accounts Manager Steve Livett on 17.02.2010. The students represented various parts of the school including Foundation, Intermediate school, and PhD. The topic of the discussion was the rise in next year's tuition fees, in the context of fees rising consistently each year. This radio talk show summary has been written and produced by AA students and Student Forum members, Camille Steyaert (3rd year) and Frederik Bo Bojesen (3rd year),  in discussion with other students who attended the meeting as well. Please note the following corrections:  "one-off costs" rather than "on cost"; "decrease of £20" rather than "increase of £20"; "the meeting was purely informational" rather than "the meeting was purely informal".

Honeybees at London’s SAVOIR FAYRE

The Savoir Fayre - enough buying, let's learn! Organised by Lynn Chambers, this fair took place on August 9, 2008 at the Hackney City Farm. The idea is the sharing of knowledge and making rather than money or finished products. Free entry to the Fayre offered Londoners the chance to learn how to fix their bike, make their own pinata, learn how to knit, how to do stop-frame animation, among many other exciting things for all ages. The atmosphere was buzzing, not least because there were hundreds of bees busy showing how they make honey - live. We hope the Savoir Fayre comes around again soon. #
