Family Environment
Rimbrook has a friendly
family atmosphere where genuine concern for
each student
is a priority. It is a ‘home away from home’.
Every effort is made to help students cope with the
demands of university life.
Activities such as study
weekends, outdoor activities and other social
functions are
offered by the centre and
contribute to a balanced lifestyle.
Social Awareness
Rimbrook's Service Projects are another optional activity for students. Visits to
the sick, disabled and elderly are organised
on a regular basis.
These provide students with
the opportunity to respond to community needs
and to develop an active concern for others.
An
overseas project is organised annually for
those who are interested. This is usually to
help the poor in a developing country.
