Social activities for international students

The Faculty of Education organises a number of social events for the international students enrolled at the faculty. These social events aim to make our international students feel welcome and provide them with networking opportunities.

In each semester, we run the following events:

afternoon teas
These light refreshments are free of charge and provide an opportunity for students to mix together and also meet up with staff members each month.
a day trip
The trip provides an opportunity for students to enjoy a day away from their studies, to mix and meet other international students while seeing and learning about parts of Victoria. The trip is by bus and is accompanied by experienced staff.
a farewell lunch
The Faculty provides a presentation lunch free of charge. It is an opportunity for students to farewell and take photos of their classmates and friends as they leave the Faculty at the completion of their studies.

Please see the calendar of these events for each semester below.

We look forward to seeing you at any of these events!
