New Bridge Parliament Update
Students across New Bridge College have been joining together to celebrate the spirit of Ramadan and the joy of Eid. This year’s celebrations have been filled with kindness, creativity, and a real sense of unity that has brought our whole college community even closer.
Our New Bridge Parliament worked hard to prepared thoughtful Eid gifts for both staff and students. We also created packs with yummy treats. We created handmade Eid cards for every class, adding a personal touch that made the celebrations feel even more special. The effort and care put into each gift and card really showed how much our parliament values the college community and celebrating culture all together.
A huge thank you goes to our amazing student representatives — Kyra, Haidan, and Kurt — who took the lead in delivering the gifts. Their enthusiasm and kindness made the experience even more meaningful, and it was wonderful to see how happy staff and students were as they received their Eid surprises.
On behalf of New Bridge Parliament and the student body, we would like to wish all staff and students a very Happy Eid. We hope everybody has a fabulous weekend.
