Bonfire Night
“Remember, remember the fifth of November”. Bonfire night is upon us on Saturday which means that fireworks will be flying through the skies over the next few days. Fireworks and sparklers are not permitted on University grounds for fire safety reasons. If you wish to attend a firework display then there are a number of local events taking place over the next few days. To see what is going on in and around Exeter, take a look at the Heart of Devon events pages for further information. The RoSPA website for advice on firework/sparkler safety.

See what various societies are doing for Bonfire Night by visiting the Students’ Guild events pages.
