BruSton Sungkai Gathering at Coffee Zone 2011

Today BruSton held a sungkai gathering at Coffee Zone Kiulap, Brunei. And, it was a great turnout! :D

Approximately 40 new and current students came to the Sungkai gathering to catch up and had a pre-icebreaking session whilst breaking our fast during the blessed month of Ramadhan.

It was great to see a lot of familiar and new faces and thanks to those who came and meet us! :)

Hungry yet happy faces! :)

HRD Briefing at Empire Hotel and Country Club

Today there was a briefing organised by the HRD Services at the Empire Hotel and Country Club, Brunei. Several UK universities International Office representatives came to give their respective briefings to the new students, one of which was the University of Southampton. The current and former committee members of BruSton also came to give some support and show some familiar faces to the new students.

Karen Arnold, the International Officer for University of Southampton gave a talk about the general life as a student at the University. One of the BruSton committee members also gave a small talk about BruSton and Southampton in general.

Many thanks to Karen for the handing out of certificates to the former members of the BruSton committee! And many thanks to those who came to the briefing! May your year in Southampton be an amazing one! :)

BSUnion's Brunei Student Societies Forum

The Brunei Students Union Forum was held for two days (26th and 27th July 2011) and ended this afternoon at the Yayasan Complex in Brunei in collaboration with the Brunei Students Unit where BruSton attended and met other Brunei societies from the UK, Malaysia and Brunei. Each society had to give a presentation about their respective societies and give an overview of their action plan for the year 2011/2012.
