If you have loads of work to do, it’s easy to trap yourself inside to work on it - remember to get some fresh air. Take your revision outside to one of Cambridge’s many parks and enjoy the weather as you go over your notes

Stop by the Helmore gym on campus, or check out some of the classes run at Kelsey Kerridge, and get a workout in. It doesn’t have to be long – we know it’s hard to make time when you have so much going on! But even a ten minute workout will get your heart pumping, and those endorphins flowing.

 

Reward yourself with punting on the river!

When you and your friends have all finished your exams and assignments, why not reward yourselves by making the most of Cambridge’s beautiful scenery and go punting with a picnic?

 

Remember that you can only do your best. We are so proud of you, and we know you’re going to smash it!
