ICMA Centre students day trip to Bath

On a beautifully crisp and sunny Sunday morning, 68 ICMA Centre students and staff boarded a coach to Bath for a day trip to one of England’s oldest and richest historical cities. Organised by the Student Ambassador, Dan Alder, the day was a great opportunity to meet with others from across the ICMA Centre’s programmes, with individuals from around the world, taking up the chance to explore the West of England.

Both undergraduates and postgraduates, browsed through the atmospheric, traditional Christmas market with over 140 stalls, to pick up some gifts or just sample some mulled wine.

Several students enjoyed a visit to the Ancient Roman Baths where the Romans first built on Bath’s geothermal spa over 2000 years ago. While others preferred to relax, bathing in the open-air roof top spa, with a stunning view of the town and Abbey below.

The day proved a great success with the Student Ambassadors already looking forward to planning their next event!
