Student Union
The Student Union is run by elected student representatives, who make sure your voice is heard. The six roles, held by second years, include: President and Vice-President; Eco and Sustainability Executive; Marketing and Communications Executive; Events and Charities Executive; and an Equality and Welfare Executive.
The Student Union (SU) is central to creating a welcoming and harmonious environment within the College for all students.
It is a student-run organisation, which is responsible for liaising with staff and senior management to discuss student feedback, ideas or raise issues ranging from College facilities to the quality of the Café food.
The SU President and Vice-President are also student trustees and attend meetings alongside other trustees. In addition, the SU also supports and collects feedback from other societies within the College including the Christian Union and the Gender Sexuality Alliance (GSA). They hold Student Voice meetings with student representatives from all tutor groups.
The social life at Esher Sixth Form college is an important part of the student experience. The activities that the SU organise include lunchtime ‘Open Mic’ gigs, Clothes Swaps, Pizza and Ping Pong sessions, a Winter Fair and our hugely popular summer festival – where we have fairground rides and food stalls for students to celebrate the end of the year. These events help to raise money for charities, including the Esher College Africa Trust (ECAT).
I’m absolutely thrilled to have been elected this year and the whole Student Union team is buzzing with excitement about the events we’re planning for you starting this September. There are many ways to get involved in student life, from joining societies like Model United Nations to GSA or being part of the Christian Union. No matter your interests, there’s a place for you here.
– Flora Burrowes, SU President
The SU Summer Festival is held on the College grounds in celebration of a great first year for 6.1 students and the end of exams for our 6.2 students.
