fine wines to celebrate not only the year-ending but also Jackie’s graduation and long<br />

Winter Ball<br />

The Winter Ball on 3 December<br />

2016, which attracted four<br />

hundred guests, was a fitting<br />

finale to the fiftieth anniversary<br />

celebrations. Its theme was<br />

‘Alpine’, and to judge by the<br />

positive feedback including a<br />

post-Ball survey, it was a huge<br />

success. To plan and execute<br />

such a ball within eight weeks<br />

Photo by Marie Wong was quite a challenge, but it was<br />

achieved by an enthusiastic and<br />

hard-working Committee. It was also fun. Our many thanks go to Tracy Fuzzard,<br />

Barry Coote and the <strong>College</strong> catering, maintenance and housekeeping staff, without<br />

whose help and guidance we could not have done it.<br />

Yoga<br />

The Club is now almost five years old. Yoga is taught by the well-known Oxford<br />

teacher Kristine Homoki, whose style is designed to harness core strength for<br />

maximum benefit, including strength, stability, balance, focus and flexibility. Classes<br />

are held twice a week in term and vacation, on Wednesday evening and Saturday<br />

afternoon, with the occasional outdoor session in Wolfson’s beautiful grounds.<br />

They provide a safe and friendly environment where everyone is welcome, whether<br />

experienced yogis or beginners, both from the Wolfson community and elsewhere<br />

in Oxford.<br />
