We would like to wish all students at 冈本视频 a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Christmas is a Christian holy day that marks the birth of Jesus, who Christians believe is the son of God. Christmas is also observed by non-religious people and people of other faiths.
Many Christians attend a special midnight church service called Midnight Mass, sing Christmas carols and exchange gifts with friends and family. Christmas is seen as a time for giving, generosity and for thinking about others.
Festive activities
We have put together some festive ideas in Leicester over the Christmas season. From Christmas movies to city trails, there are lots of things to get involved with over the holidays.
- Christmas Wheel of Light
- Enlightened Leicester at Christmas

We can put into place reasonable academic adjustments for your course and let your academic staff know so they can also support you.
