Learning Carnivale invitation

Are you a new student this year - either an undergraduate or a postgraduate? Are you interested in finding out more about how to manage group work activities, critical reading and writing, academic integrity or scholarly analysis? Would you like to learn more about these in a fun and engaging way, while meeting other students from different Faculties and Schools? Are you looking for something that will help you with your university studies during the mid-session recess, when a lot of people are on holidays? Would you like to do all of this for free, with a delicious lunch and snacks provided?

If you answered yes to all or any of these questions, then you are the perfect student to attend the Learning Carnivale!

What:
The First Year on Campus Learning Carnivale is organised by Learning Development, and will involve panel discussions with academics from a wide range of Faculties and disciplines, willing to give you advice about how you can succeed in your studies and how the skills and competencies you develop will help you in your future careers. Senior students will also be around to act as peer mentors and to talk about their own experiences. We will also have some exciting special guests (including someone who will teach you to juggle) and activities (including a fun game hunting across campus for references). Lunch and snacks will also be provided for registered attendees.

When:
Thursday 14th and Friday 15th April from 9.30am - 3.30pm

Building 20 opposite the Library's main entrance - look for the Learning Carnivale registration desk in the foyer
