We know how tempting it can be to spend the entire summer as a couch potato, especially after a busy academic year. However, staying active can help boost your mood, improve your energy levels, and support both your physical and mental wellbeing.

At St Andrews, many of us stay active without even realising it, as most facilities are within walking distance. Returning home can be quite different, and it can be easy to slip out of those habits. In honour of Global Running Day, we've put together some ideas to help you stay active this summer, with options suitable for a range of activity levels, whether you're just getting started or already have an established fitness routine.

Here's a fun thought: What if St Andrews traditions were snacks? 👀

From Oatmeal Raisin Weekend Bars to Milk-Soaking Cookies, we tried turning some of the University's most iconic traditions into food. Which one do you think fits best, and what hypothetical snack would you eat? 🍪🌊

Now that the summer holidays have arrived, perhaps think of what type of rest you need to recover from all the academic workload! Feeling tired does not always mean you just need more sleep 🌙 Sometimes your mind is exhausted, sometimes your emotions are overwhelmed, and sometimes you just need time away from constant noise and pressure. Learning what kind of rest you actually need can make such a big difference.

🎉 CONGRATULATIONS 🎉 from all of us at Student Services! We wish you a fun and relaxing summer.

Internships can genuinely change the direction of your career if you approach them properly. A lot of people focus only on getting the internship, but what you do during it matters just as much. Networking, asking questions, taking initiative, learning from feedback, and staying connected afterwards can turn a short experience into long term opportunities. Even if you feel nervous or inexperienced, showing enthusiasm and willingness to learn already makes a strong impression.

Part 18 of the St Andrews Bird Series: chiffchaffs!

Despite their plain olive-brown appearance, chiffchaffs are highly active insect hunters, constantly flitting through foliage in search of small insects and spiders. And unlike many migratory birds, chiffchaffs are known for their early arrival in spring, often being one of the first warblers to return to the UK after wintering in southern Europe or North Africa.
