On 26th September 2026, MSSM hosted our Mid-Autumn Social at The Hive in the Students’ Union—marking our very first social gathering of the academic year! 🥮✨
We kicked off the evening by welcoming freshers as they arrived, breaking the ice over tabletop board games and conversation. To bring the authentic warmth of home to Manchester, we served comforting pots of hot Pu-erh tea alongside a selection of classic Malaysian mooncakes—featuring lotus paste, white lotus paste, and red bean favorites. 🫖
The highlight of the night was re-creating a beloved childhood tradition: assembling traditional Mid-Autumn lanterns! Once lit, we gathered at Brunswick Park for a nostalgic evening stroll under the night sky, taking turns walking with our lanterns and remaking fond memories of home. 🏮
We wrapped up the night with a big family photo. Thank you to everyone who joined us for our season kickoff—here’s to many more social events to come! 📸💛
