Firstly to introduce you to the new Sabbs of the year, we have -
James Ricci - President
Scott Bellamy - VP Representation
Hannah Wright - VP Communications
Well, it's been an adventure so far, lots of meetings, lots of meet and greets, first deadlines been and gone and things ever changing!
So what have I been doing up here in the steaming hot SUBU office? (It is very hot!)
Well the main thing that has been completed is the freshers' mail out. We have been working long and hard gathering events and the lovely G has put them all together in an amazingly designed little booklet to be sent out to all the freshers' so they know what they can get involved in in the two most important weeks of Uni life. I had my first overtime session in the 2nd week of starting my post; hand over hadn't even finished and I came in at 6:30am to put together the events for the guide to meet the deadline!
We have also been filming for the freshers' DVD. This is a DVD all about the world of SUBU and what we can do for you! We were very lucky with the weather and went down to the beach to get some footage! It was all giong so well until I nearly broke my back! That's a lesson for you all, keep off the groynes!
The first SUBU news, which is new to the SUBU scene has also been filmed and put together by the amazing Gio and Izzy.

Most of the rest of my time has been spent updating the website. The day events for Freshers' Fortnight were put up this week. Have a look at - http://www.subu.org.uk/freshers/content/170325/day_events_guide/
News stories have been going up about recycling, swine flu and the like and we even had a small debate in the office about which method of drying your hands after washing them was the best and most hygenic. We're doing our best here to eliminate risks of swine flu!
We have been going through our initiatives and what we would like to concentrate on in the coming year. Us three Sabbs - James, Scott and I, have decided the following are the most important to us to represent the students -
1. Recognising student success
2. Increased presence in the local community and improving student and community relationships
3. Democratic Involvement
4. Campaigns
5. Expanding on our values of honest, open and trusting
an last, but defintitely not least 6. Looking after the environment.
So that's it from me for today. I will be back shortly with some more exciting things to write about. I will leave you with a random fact for the day -
Female mosquitos are the only ones that bite; The male ones don't!
Stay Classy Bournemouth!
Hannah
