Hello everyone, for those of you who might not know, my name is Lauryn Fleming, and I am a 2nd year dance student and flat rep running to become your new Froebel President.
I thrive on experiencing each aspect of college life and involving myself in everything it has to offer. I am a true, friendly Froebelian with your best interest at heart and will do everything I can to create an environment inclusive to each member of our ever growing community. I am hard working, approachable and determined to continue to spread the passion and enthusiasm I have for Froebel among you all.
If I am lucky enough to be elected I will ensure to continue several ideas put into place by our current college team as well as contributing the following:
-Work alongside accommodation to ensure mid term move ins are communicated effectively with flat reps to create a relaxed flat environment through out the year. I would also hope to reconsider flat rep training week which would allow flat reps to welcome new international freshers by making friendships and offering support from day one.
-Take advantage of central London by planning a weekend event during the spring for all Froebel students to enjoy together. By visiting popular tourist attractions in London as a group of on/ off-campus students and new January arrivals, we would give everybody the chance to spend time together while enjoying a day out in our amazing city during a fairly ‘empty’ term.
-Create a Froebel Youtube channel to gain an awareness of what is happening around the college. From Froebel sports games, dance events, college cup highlights to individuals’ achievements, sharing these videos could help remove any feelings of ‘cliques’ within the college and allow us to celebrate our successes together. It would also allow freshers to gain an understanding of the college before they arrive and prepare them to start their journey in our Froebel family.
-Encourage more participation in college cup events to make them bigger, more memorable events to look forward to. I would work alongside the RSU to organise these at the start of the year and release a timetable of what we have to look forward to through out the year and show who really has the most college spirit.
-Communicate with off campus students about college events to improve the full sense of community. This would stop the feeling of separating students living on campus with flat reps from off campus into two groups and allow every member of Froebel to experience what being part of our fantastic college really feels like.
Over the past two years I have gained so much from Froebel and would truly appreciate your support in helping me become your next president. This would be the ultimate way of giving back to the college and making everyone’s Froebel experience as positive and memorable as mine so far!
With YOUR help we can achieve OUR goals together!
