UniMates

Do you like to find out about other countries from the people who live there? Do you like helping visitors to our country by teaching them about our culture? Are you friendly, outgoing and enjoy doing stuff with other people? Then UniMates might be just the thing for you!

The International Friendship Program run by the BSA and La Trobe International is looking for volunteers to help new international students in semester two to adapt to life in Australia. The program is run over six weeks and involves a social activity with a group of students each week. Activities include things like ten pin bowling, indoor rock climbing, African drumming, trivia night and cooking for a shared dinner.

To find out more about UniMates, grab a brochure from the BSA Info Centre or contact Grace White Feather at La Trobe International on 5444 7286

 
Open Day Guides
We are again searching for students willing to offer their time to help show potential future students and their families around the Campus.

Bendigo is known as a welcoming and friendly campus, and having welcoming and friendly guides is a great way to promote our University. You will be provided with training so you are confident and prepared on the day. You will also receive some rewards as a thank you for your efforts along with a certificate of appreciation.

 
Lost Property
Our cupboards at the BSA are overflowing with lost property from throughout semester 1. We have: memory sticks, sunglasses, reading glasses, textbooks, DVDs, clothes, keys, pencil cases and heaps of other stuff. If not picked up before end of semester, the whole lot will be given away. Ask at the Info Centre if you think something belongs to you.
