Custos Testudinum (Tortoise Keeper)
Hi everyone! I’m George, a 3rd year physics student and JCR Tortoise Keeper. I’ll be organising this year’s Tortoise Fair (late Trinity) and keeping all of you up to date with the ongoings in the life of Foxe, Corpus’s much beloved 84-year-old college tortoise. Keep your eyes peeled for developments on Foxe’s IG page @foxethecorpustortoise.
Currently, Foxe is resting up in hibernation, biding his time for a showstopping performance in the Tortoise Race. Plans are already underway for this year’s fair to ensure it’ll be a spectacular end-of-year celebration, raising lots of money for charity.
Please reach out if you have ideas for the fair, want to help out, or have any questions. I’ll be hanging around the JCR and always delighted to discuss all things tortoise, either in person or by email george.weston@ccc.ox.ac.uk
Have a look at the Corpus Christi College Tortoise page!
