How to Melbourne!
Four events and lots of new connections!
O-Week was wrapped up with a trip to Melbourne Zoo, which marked the first instalment of the Biomedicine Students' Society (BSS) ‘How to Melbourne’ series.
This mini program of events was designed to help our new international, interstate, and rural students explore the city, make new friends, and feel more connected to their new home!
How to Melbourne
From the Zoo, Hosier Lane to Marvel Stadium to watch Essendon vs Port and a few spots in between! Here’s what the series looked like in pictures. Thanks to all who were involved, we hope you feel more connected to your new campus and city!
