Practical information!
There's a Christ's College map.
We have a page on how to get to Christ's College here. We are extremely close to Cambridge Bus Station and only a 25 minute walk from the Cambridge train station too (the main one - not Cambridge North which is 45 minutes!).
Driving is more difficult - there is no parking available at Christ's. For anyone planning to drive to Cambridge, we recommend that you use the various Park and Rides around Cambridge - parking in Cambridge is very expensive! See the further info for more information.
Parents and guardians
The Maths Day Event is for prospective students only, and we ask that you enter the College on your own (please leave any parents and guardians at the main gate). If you have a parent or guardian who is bringing you to Cambridge and would like practical information or information for what they can do during the day, please invite them to read the info for parents and guardians.
