The first SWIGS event for the 2021/22 school year was a colorful meet-and-greet! (see photos)

Team SWIGS for 2021/22 school year were joined by new and existing members of SWIGS for the SWIGS Fall Welcome. The socially-distanced in-person event included terracota pots painting, colouring sheets, friendship bracelet tutorials, and delicious pizza supplied from the Graduate House. Members of the SWIGS community present connected with each other as they filled the interactive ice-breaker bingo. Filled bingo sheets were entered into a raffle draw that produced three lucky winners of SWIGS and Water Institute merch! Browse the photo gallery to visit some of the exciting memories from this event.
