O-Week around UWS

March 9th, 2010 | By webmaster

Thousands of students at Penrith, Bankstown and Parramatta campuses enjoyed free lunch, massages and entertainment put on by the Hive during Orientation Week. The Brazillian dance, drumming and capoeira organised by Aisha, Vice-President Activities, was a huge hit.

Contact Aisha activities@thehive-studentunion.org.au or the Activities Coordinator h.hodder@uws.edu.au if you would like to get involved with activites or start a new club. Societies that are starting up and need executive members or helpers include Gaming (Parramatta), Origami (Penrith), Nursing (Parramatta and Campbelltown), Part-time students (peer support across all campuses), Latin American Solidarity and many more.

Students at Campbelltown campus enjoyed a free BBQ lunch and traditional Indigenous dance performance courtesy of the Hive.

Jacob (Hive President), Loui (Secretary), Aisha (Vice-President – Activities) and Hive staff talked to students about clubs and societies, academic rights’ advocacy and how to get involved with the student union. A giant buzzing bee also made an appearance!

Student groups that cater for Podiatry, Health Science and Nursing students are set to form as a result of the day, as well as an organising committee for the Final Year Dinner for Occupational Therapy students.

Contact Heidi at h.hodder@uws.edu.au if you are interested in joining any of these groups or existing clubs or are interested in finding out more about starting up a new society on campus (funding and support available!)
