Last week, we celebrated Lodge Porter Neville's retirement after 14 years at SPC! Neville said, 'I've seen a lot of young people come through these doors, and by the time they graduate, they've changed and grown into young adults. That's what it's all about here, and it's great to be a part of it.'

The annual SCR and Staff vs JCR #Cricket Match ended with (yet another) JCR win! A source unwilling to go on the record has suggested that the SCR/Staff Team had the advantage, but decided to be lenient on the JCR. Other witnesses have disputed this. Our fact-checking team is on the case.

The 2025 Garden Play showed an unlikely group of students who become friends whilst trying to restore the spirit of St Peter's College. Unsurprisingly, a friendly face in the Lodge holds the [cross]key to the mystery! The student crew dedicated the play to Porter Neville, who retires this summer.

The Master co-judged an 'AI vs Humans' poetry competition with columnist and broadcaster Giles Coren. She said: It's heartening to know that, for the moment at least, a good poem with heart and pulse as its point of origin is still distinguishable from its artificially generated counterpart.'
