    Hii everyone,

    Just like to say thank you if you came to the Pirate Invasion, we managed to raise £180, so thanks for everyone who came and donated money to RAG. Also a massive thank you to the people who were around on Goodfest, we raised around £400 from henna, cakes and the auction, so thank you so much.

    Our next event is Goodricke's Got Talent where we want all you talented people in Goodricke to come and showcase your talents to the rest of us! The first heat will be held on MONDAY WEEK 8 - 8.30PM GCR. If you win you'll be representing us in Woodstock later in the term.

    If you'd like to enter please email us on raggoodricke@yusu.org. Or if you are please come along and donate to the act you'd like to win!

    Love RAG Girls x

  • GoodFest 2010

    So, Goodricke has now been officially opened by Prince Andrew, who was apparently a big hit with those who met him (chatting knowledgeably about students' favourite subject, Facebook). Some might think it odd that the official opening happened after Goodricke has been inhabited for eight months, but that's royal social calendars for you.

    Since the official opening was a bit of an exclusive affair, we thought we'd have something a bit more fun for the whole university to attend. GoodFest is going to be this Saturday (week 4), it's free, and you can find out more on the events page. We've got events going on all day and into the evening, and everyone's welcome. We're hoping to make GoodFest a regular event every Summer Term, now that we've got the space, so make sure you're there for what will hopefully become a bit of a college tradition!

    On Sunday (week 4), we're going to be inviting our neighbours over in Badger Hill to come and tour the college, so don't be too alarmed if you see more families than usual wandering around Hes East. The building project has been pretty stressful for residents, so hopefully this'll help keep them sweet.

    See you all at GoodFest!

    I hope everyone had a good Easter break and managed to make it back ok despite the ash monster. Its been good to see everyone enjoying the new BBQs and the good weather, even if some of us have had exams (not that I'm bitter or anything).

    I've been asked by the Provost Jane, to pass on her many thanks to everyone for helping make Wednesday such a success, and for putting up with some of the inconveniences caused by it. A big thanks also goes to the volunteers who helped show the guests around Goodricke and let them into their kitchens and flats, and those who entertained Prince Andrew in Flats 31 and 32.

    Your JCRC has been busy already making sure the next term is packed full of events for you all. We've got Dan and Hannah organising a weekly Monday Bar(less) quiz in the JCR, with the chance to win some great prizes. Your Social Reps are busy organising a trip to Newcastle for the start of week 3 which looks set to be absolutley amazing if the Leeds one last term was anything to go by.

    We've also got Goodfest coming up on the Saturday of Week 4 - an all day/evening event at Goodricke with a Courtyard Bar, BBQ, Bucking Bronco, Music Acts, various stalls, Milkshack selling their infamous Milkshakes, performances by JuggleSoc and much more!
