I can’t wait to meet you guys in freshers’ week (get excited!) and in the meantime, feel free to give me a shout if there’s anything I can help with!

Hi Everyone! I’m Gabriella, a second year studying the best subject ever (English). I’m looking forward to being your secretary next year - which means I will be writing up the minutes from jcr meetings and sending out weekly newsletters with lots of important information - which I hope you all read.

Treasurer

Hola, my name is Ben and I am the incoming treasurer ‼️. I am primarily studying loving, laughing and living, but also a little bit of biology. I row, throw disc, and spoons in my spare time. I shall be charge of all things money, such as funding your college endeavours or communicating budgets. Welcome to St Anne's ‼️‼️
Welfare Officers
Daisy Johnston, Megan Wadsworth & Nic Ong
she/her, she/her & he/him
Hi Guys! We’re Nic (Experimental Psychology), Daisy (Biology),
and Megan (Medicine), and we’re your welfare reps for the
year!. As welfare reps, it’s our job to support the physical,
mental, and academic welfare of the undergraduate body.
Both the academic pressure and new environment of
university can often be stressful, with people facing their own
unique struggles during the transition process which we aim to
mitigate. Throughout the year we’ll be a primary point of
contact for any welfare issues that you face, so always feel
free to find or email one of us if you have any concerns. On
top of managing more pressing welfare issues, we’ll be
running a variety of events, from a weekly welfare tea on
sundays to more infrequent events such as origami and movie
nights!
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us!
Entz Reps
Pippa Sefton & Noah Harper-Smith
she/her & he/him
Hi my name is Noah and I’m gonna be your Entz rep for next
year congratulations. I’m a biologist and I call my home Devon
even though I actually live in Essex now. I’m hoping to make your
year as fun as possible by organising events around St Anne’s
and generally being a friendly face and a super nice dude. You’ll
probably find me up rocking the karaoke but I am also football
captain next year so if you love football, I will happily talk about
it for hours. If you thought you would be working all day at
Oxford, think again, I will make sure you enjoy yourself. Any
questions about activities, life at Oxford and everything in
between don’t hesitate to ask.
I'm Pippa and, like Noah, I'm going into my second year of
biology. I loved my first year at Anne's which I mostly spent
chatting on the stacs sofas, around the kitchen table in Rayne
or in Grapes (Oxford's most iconic(?) pub). Disclaimer - I also
spent a fair chunk of it in the library but you can definitely get
a good work/life balance at Oxford and that's where Noah and
I come in! If you have any questions about the party culture at
Annes or any ideas for the BOPS please email us !

So never be afraid to reach out if you feel overwhelmed, just drop a message and I’ll always be happy to help!

I think it is highly important to cultivate an atmosphere that promotes people’s individual talents within college, but also to forge creative connections more widely within the Oxfordartistic community.
