Fun, Friendly College Quiz Boosts Lockdown Morale

The CRC Students’ Union Officer team held a New Year quiz for students and staff last week and it was such a great success that they are now planning to run it fortnightly.

Lockdown has resulted in many of us being stuck at home with nowhere to go and, at times, little to do. To combat lockdown and the potential for people to become isolated, the Students’ Union Officer team will be hosting a fortnightly college quiz.

Students and staff can either create their own team or be allocated a team upon joining the Teams call, meaning that everyone can join in. Each round has been compiled by a member of the Students’ Union team and each quiz night will feature a themed round based on key activities taking place in the college calendar.

Student Engagement Coordinator, Sarah Allen said, “Lockdown has impacted college life in many ways, one of which is the interruption to on-site enrichment activities. It is important to us that we continue to engage students in extra-curricular activities, and it has been lovely to see so many students, and staff, from all departments and both campuses come together to work and compete in a fun and friendly way. In addition, the Students’ Union Officer Team have enjoyed putting this project together and seeing it’s success has been a great boost to them.”
