Queen to visit Magdalen College

Queen Elizabeth II and The Duke of Edinburgh are to visit Magdalen College on November 27th to mark the 550th anniversary of the foundation of the college.

The Queen is to have lunch with Fellows and some students and college staff. Students have been invited to put their names in a draw to determine those who will be invited to lunch with the Queen.

Charles Byers, 1st year Music student at Magdalen says “I’m deeply honoured by this event. It’s amazing to have such an opportunity, I’ve already put my slip into the drawing box and I’m very excited.”

Queen Elizabeth II, at 81, became Britain’s oldest-ever monarch on Thursday.
