A very special ceremony today, where over half of the graduands were receiving their MBA degrees (so many 'green hoods' on display!) and the lining up took place in a very sunny Webb’s Court. See them all leave College via the King’s Lane Gate behind the Deputy Head Porter and the Praelector. Congratulations to all! Enjoy the rest of your big day and share some of your photos with communications@kings.cam.ac.uk or tag King’s in your posts. @cambridgeuniversity @cambridgejudge #cambridgegraduation
 
🎉 ‘Singing on the River’ is back on the College banks on Sunday 23 June. What better occasion than a sunny evening like today’s to book your tickets (available at external link find 🔗in bio) and start planning what to pack in your picnic basket? While the weather may not be as hot as last year’s, we can guarantee the wildflower meadow and the Chapel will be the best backdrop for your pics! 💜 (These 📸 were taken last year by @acambridgediary) @kingsmencamb @kingscollegechoir @cambridgeuniversity #summerincambridge #singingontheriver #rivercam

Unfortunately, our old hive perished over the winter. We have since found two new hives to cherish and so this is one of the first inspections of the season… with many more to come. We hope you all welcome the new bees with love ❤️. P.S. spot the queen bee in pictures 8 & 9!!!
 
All shades of pink and purple met in the Cambridge sky last night, and so many gathered on the Back Lawn to try to capture it on camera. 😍 Thank you for sharing the moment with us, keep tagging the College in your posts and fingers crossed the show will continue tonight! #northernlights #cambridgecollegelife 📷 by @_sjnl
 
Bodley's Court has proven to be a great revision / alfresco lunching / end-of-the-week catching up spot today. 🌷
 
...and they're back! Make the most of this lovely evening and walk down the path to see them up-close(r). #gardeningatkings💜 #cambridgecollegelife #cambridgecows

#springincambridge feeling almost like #summerincambridge? It is the perfect weather for a walk along The Backs, or to the Fellows' Garden. (Thank you, Alice, for sharing this pic of your evening walk.)
 
If you could do with a bit of (free) cake and a natter, or with some stretching or art-making, check out the Wellbeing Term Card and find your time to take a break from revision! 🍰 Hosted by the Health and Wellbeing team at King's, these breaks will take place throughout Easter term and are a great opportunity to see some friendly faces and press pause. There is still time to join one of the Wellbeing Workshops too: 🔵Calm Resilience - Today (30 April) 3-4pm in Keynes Lecture Theatre. 🟣Habits For Difficult Thoughts & Anxiety - Wednesday 8 May, 3-4pm online, link to follow. @kcsucambridge @kings.welfare @kcgs_social #reachoutcambridge
