In what should have been Summer Eights week for our @orielrowing Tortoises, here's a lovely video of JCR President Kate Whittington's pet tortoise, Spider, who has ambitions of representing the College in the intercollegiate tortoise race one day! #petsoforiel#tortoisesoforiel

Torpids may have been cancelled due to floods, but our rowers @orielrowing were victorious in the inaugural 'Tug of Warpids' last weekend, with the Oriel A team claiming the 'Ropeship' in a hard-fought contest against Christ Church.
The river has been high and fast. Torpids less than a month away so good to see the enthusiasm for Oriel's rowing. @orielrowing@OrielAlumni@OrielOxford. https://t.co/Kcq9523QoK
Last Wednesday, Oriel students trialling for the Boat Race took part in Trial Eights. Hal Frigaard and Leo Von Malaisé rowed in competing boats 'Hurley' and 'Burley', and associate member Renée Koolschijn rowed on the women's side. We wish them luck with the rest of their season!
