Warden Welcome: Asha Oguri

Posted 10 months ago

Welcome to Montague Burton… I can’t wait to meet you!

My name is Asha Oguri, and I am your Residence Life Warden at Montague Burton. Montague Burton is (and I promise, I am not biased) a fantastic hall of residence, with a great sense of community.  You will be living nice and close to the University’s campus and supported by a fantastic team of four Residence Life Assistants (RLAs). 

A little about me… I am originally from London and moved to Leeds for my undergraduate degree in BA Social Policy. I graduated in 2019, and never left! I love Leeds and I hope you will too.  If you are interested in what your new home city has to offer, check out Residence Life’s Student Life in Leeds guides and get excited 😊

In short, myself and the RLAs are here to ensure you make the most of your time at Montague Burton.  We are here to help you navigate your new home city and meet new people, and our aim is always to make Montague Burton your ‘home away from home’.  If you ever face anything that troubles you or if you just need a friendly face to talk to - we are here to help. 

During your time at Montague Burton, I encourage you to consider joining our Social Committee.  Last year’s Social Committee had a great time making a real impact on our community at Montague Burton.  From Cinema nights to game nights and pizza parties, to dog therapy sessions… it is a real opportunity to develop your skills, whilst having fun!  

Do follow our Instagram page to keep up to date with our upcoming social events! 

I can’t wait to get to know you!

Asha 😊
