Trinity College Post Doctoral Society Family Events 2025/26

I serve as the Family Officer for the Trinity College Postdoctoral Society for the 2025/26 academic year.

On this page, you will find a selection of events that bring our community together and help the Society make a real impact on the vibrant academic (and non-academic) life of Cambridge.

These activities create more opportunities for the University's postdoc community to connect, share ideas, and engage across disciplines.

Have a look around, and feel free to share your thoughts! More events are coming soon...

Cambridge University Botanic Garden

On August 9th, 2025, our TCPDS family event took us to the Botanic Garden for a morning of fun and fresh air. Kids (and even the adults!) loved collecting stamps on the adventure trail.

Postdoc appreciation week event

On 17th Sept 2025, TCPDS hosted a Postdoc Appreciation Week gathering. The evening celebrated postdoctoral researchers with mingling, refreshments, and gratitude.

Trinity College Fellows' Garden

On September 27th, 2025, our TCPDS family event took us to Trinity College's Fellows' Garden for an afternoon of fresh food, autumn sunshine, and a stroll along the new Woodland Walk.

The Great Court Run

The Great Court Run took place on 18 October 2025, and our TCPDS families joined the excitement at Trinity College! From cheering students racing around Great Court to the children’s mini-run and a joyful lunch afterward, it was a fantastic day of fun, tradition, and community.

Hallowen Art & Craft

On 19th Oct, the TCPDS Family Halloween Arts & Crafts event brought children, parents, and friends together for a fun afternoon of spooky-but-silly creations, pumpkin painting, mask decorating, games, and snacks.
