Got that Degree Day feeling 🎓🥳 Thank you to Olivia Cho for this lovely photo from Saturday's graduation!

The annual St Mark’s Day service brings us together to celebrate those who shaped the College. This year, on the Chapel’s 150th birthday, we were particularly honoured to have the Chancellor, Lord Hague, mark the occasion with us 🎉

Just over a week until our Chapel turns 150 years old and, predictably, not much has changed in that time! #ThrowbackThursday

DATES FOR THE DIARY: 40th annual Eric Symes Abbott Memorial Lecture by Francis Spufford - 'Why aren’t there more beautiful places?': 21 May | 6.30pm | @westminsterabbey.bsky.social | buff.ly/gpz4MPI 22 May | 5.30pm | @kebleoxford.bsky.social | buff.ly/ztk4eXr @KCLChaplaincy

The telethon has returned! 📞 Our wonderful student team will be calling our alumni community over the next 2 weeks to chat about all things Keble and to raise money for the College. Here are some of the friendly faces that may be on the other end of the line – thank you to everyone involved!

With clocks going forward an hour tonight, we make the change from Greenwich Mean Time to British Summer Time. This might mean one hour less in bed but it also means the sun won’t set before 7:30 pm again until September! 🥳

We've made it through winter, happy spring equinox! 🌷🐝

A lot can change in 155 years... and a lot can also stay the same 📸 #ThrowbackThursday

Our brickwork has been looking particularly radiant in this week’s late afternoon sun ☀️🧱

For #NationalLoveYourPetDay, we asked our students to share their photos of our Warden's dog, Rievaulx, and they did not disappoint 🐕 Thank you to Sarah, Phoebe and Melinda for capturing these lovely photos 📸

The crocuses have started to pop up around our gardens and grounds. In the language of flowers, or floriography, the crocus symbolises cheerfulness and we couldn’t agree more! They also provide a source of nectar and pollen to emerging bees after the cold winter 🐝

Happy International Zebra Day from your favourite “holy zebra style” college! What was intended as an architectural insult in 1870 is something we wouldn't want any other way 🦓

For today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #cold, here's Keble College Oxford, seen from University Parks after heavy snowfall. #EastCoastKin

Brightening up what has been a rather grey January, the first snowdrops have been spotted in our flowerbeds 🌱

And just like that, we’ve reached the end of Michaelmas term. Whilst we keep our fingers crossed for the real thing, here’s a throwback to last year’s snow ❄️ We wish everyone a restful break and look forward to welcoming our students back for Hilary term 🧡

We had a blast welcoming back our 1980s cohort to Keble at the weekend for their decade reunion. Thank you to all who attended, we hope you had as much fun as we did!🕺

September 22nd marks the autumnal equinox and our Butterfield brickwork is never more beautiful than in this season 🍂

If you’ve visited us this summer, you'll have seen we've been restoring some of our stained glass windows, but this isn’t the first time the chapel has needed a bit of TLC! These older photos were taken in 1962 and 1975, showing repairs being done to the roof and the outer wall 🧱

We are thrilled to have been awarded a University Green Impact Gold Award in recognition of the great sustainability work happening across Keble, improving on last year’s Silver! Thank you to our College community for all of their efforts to become more environmentally friendly 💚

Over the last two days, we welcomed hundreds of prospective students during our July Open Days for Keble tours, talks and ice cream 🍦 Thank you to our staff and student ambassadors for all of their help! Missed us this time? We’ll be back for another #OxOpenDay on September 19th 🗓️

And with the longest day of the year comes the end of the academic one 🎓 Thank you to all our students and staff for everything you've contributed to this year and we wish everyone a wonderful summer ☀️

With Trinity Term comes one of our favourite traditions: the chance to make the most of Liddon Quad's beautiful lawns and our students have certainly been doing that ☀ Thank you to Olivia for this great photo 📸

Keble College was officially founded on June 6th, 1870, making us 155 years old today 🥳

Five Keble crews returned to the river last week for this year’s Summer VIIIs. We’re incredibly proud of each team, and a special congratulations to our W2 crew for winning blades! 🚣 Here are some snaps from the final day 📸

On Friday 13th(!) at 5pm @philtinline.bsky.social will be giving a talk @kebleoxford.bsky.social, discussing the significance of conspiracy theories for politics in the US (and beyond), drawing on his excellent new book Ghosts of Iron Mountain. Oxford people, sign up below: bit.ly/43HGyxT

At graduation, our students can take a piece of Keble with them. Fortunately, these bricks are made of foam. The real ones are staying put! By getting their brick, graduates also support current students and the future of Keble through the Talbot Fund 🧱 #KebleCollege #OxfordUniversity #DegreeDay

On Saturday, we welcomed back over 100 Keble graduands to celebrate their Degree Day with friends and family. Congratulations to all on this big achievement! We look forward to having you in our alumni community 🥳

Stunning double rainbow over @kebleoxford.bsky.social earlier this week.

Congratulations to our team of Keble runners who ran the Town and Gown 10k on Sunday, sporting some iconic t-shirts and raising money for Child Bereavement🏃

How adorable are these shots of our Warden's dog Rievaulx in the bluebells? 🐕 Thank you to Sarah (@ingedarart on Instagram) for sending us these photos! Students and staff can sign up to walk Rievaulx anytime using the poster at the Porter's Lodge 💜

Wisteria on the wall of beautiful @kebleoxford.bsky.social #Oxford for #flowersonfriday #floralfriday

Last weekend, we hosted the Festival of Sports where our current students went head-to-head against our alumni in football, tennis, rugby and netball 🏆 Thank you to everyone who came to play and made the day possible! More photos from the matches can be found here → bit.ly/4cZc3ru

Today marks the start of the final term in the academic year—Trinity Term—and spring has come out in full force in Hayward Quad to welcome our students back 🌼

Last week not only brought some beautiful weather but some beautiful wildlife too, like this Peacock butterfly found on a tulip at our H B Allen Centre 🦋

With clocks going forward an hour tonight, we change from Greenwich Mean Time to British Summer Time. This means the sun won’t set before 7:30 pm again until September 🥳 and soon enough, College will start to look like this again ☀️
