SU Welcome Tour - Commuting & Local Students

30/09/2025 - 30/09/2025

10am - 11am

Meet at the Welcome Hub, Square 3

We know that campus can initially feel so daunting, but the student commuters are here to show you around and help you feel at home.  

Meet by the welcome hub on Square 3 where you will be greeted by a current commuting student.

Discover all the best places on campus to snack, study, and socialise!

From the Library to EBS, from The Lakes to The Store, students will give you all the insider info you need to make the most of campus life.

After the tour, there are several events happening throughout the day that you're welcome to attend making the visit to campus worth while:

  • SU Makes: Himmeli Suncatchers
    11:00 AM – 4:00 PM in the Atrium

  • Commuters & Local Students Social
    4:00 PM – 6:00 PM in the inbetween

    Time slots are available from 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM, allowing you to attend both this activity and the Commuters Social if you'd like.

Please note we have a range of tours throughout welcome. Each tour will show you the same parts of campus, but each will focus on a particular theme or interest.

Can't wait to see you, love your SU x
