salve Reader!

Did you know the Roman year used to start in March? Yep! It does actually make quite a lot of sense: the land starts being alive again, sailing and long-distance trading can resume... not to speak about warfare! In fact, the month of March is dedicated to Mars, partly because that is when military campaigns resumed.

Anyway, we are not going to war (at least not literally, hopefully), but I also enjoy the renewal that comes with the first signs of spring. A bit more on that below. But first...

Back to the diary:

1. Those sitting the ICCG must ensure they have submitted their exam registration. If you are working with me, I will have chased you, but it is always good to spread the word.
2. Those considering Oxbridge next year, please make sure you sign up for the open day on March 23rd. You can read all about it on the Cambridge website. If you have a student who is unsure, please remind them that this is about finding out whether it is the right choice for them and an opportunity to attend stimulating lectures.
3. My February workshop for members of the GCSE Latin Revision Course will take place this coming Sunday at 7 pm. Yes, I know it is already March, but February was very short, and many people are still recovering from their holidays! If you would like to attend, you can now join the course on a month-by-month basis.

On other news, I am putting together an A-Level monthly membership to support students with their language revision. Some of you have already discussed this with me, but if you have not yet and are interested, please reply to this email so I can take your needs into account when I flesh it out in full.

in proximum!
