Week 5– Tri 2

Don’t forget Deakin's Open Day is THIS Sunday 24th August 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 the RLs. 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.
