The Green Ambassadors
About The Green Associations and The Green Ambassadors
- The Green is divided into seven Green Associations, each with approximately 150 students.
- The Associations are led by a group of enthusiastic Green Ambassadors, who we recruit at the beginning of the academic year.
- The Ambassadors organise events, communicate with their students, promote engagement and provide accommodation feedback.
- Ambassadors also do everything they can to win competitions and obtain the Association of the Year title at the end of the academic year.
- Monthly meetings of all Ambassadors are aimed at discussing events, giving accommodation feedback from students and brainstorming different ideas.
- There are several competitions scheduled throughout the year, which enable The Green Associations to compete with each other. They cover a wide variety of interests, from sports to fundraising. Together with awards for the participants, every competition allows the associations to gain points. At the end of the year, the association with the highest score wins The Association of The Year title.
Green Association Scheme
The Green Associations Scheme is a new and exciting project. We are aiming at creating a positive community spirit throughout the student village and making your time at The Green a memorable experience. By taking the role of Green Ambassador or simply engaging with the project, you will have the unique opportunity of shaping your Association and leaving a legacy for future generations living at The Green.

“Congrats on being in what is clearly the best Association! Celadon rocks! I would say good luck, but seeing as you’re in Celadon, you won’t need it. All the best!” Ed and Sam
