Don’t forget Deakin's Open Day is THIS Sunday 23rd from 9am-4pm.

Throughout the day, there will be large groups of people walking around

the village and MB, taking a look at what Residences has to offer.

Two units at the village and two levels

of MB have been assigned for public

tours which will be led by our Student

Leaders.

We recommend ressies find an

alternative place to study if they feel

the visitors will be too disruptive.

Open Day is an important opportunity for potential future students and

their families to get an idea of what living on campus is like.

Even if you are not directly involved with Open Day, please ensure that

the exterior of your units/apartments and their outdoor areas are in a

clean and tidy condition.

It’s going to be a fantastic day!
