Due to the rising number of Covid cases in Lent Term, the Annual Dinner was rescheduled to the start of Easter term. During the pre-dinner drinks in the Knox Shaw, the Confrat enjoyed the opportunity to converse with this year’s guest speak, Richard Partington, who had read History at Sidney in the eighties. In line with the unprecedented nature of many of Confrat’s activities this year, the opening speech was not given by the Pontifex but by the Magister, followed by Dr Bernhard Fulda who shared anecdotes from Confrat’s history. In his speech, Mr. Partington reflected on his time at Sidney and shared in his love for the society. The Princeps closed with a charming speech which got many laughs from the audience and with that the society retired again to the Knox-Shaw for port.
Magister Rotulorum – Bijal Manoj Daialal
