  • We kicked off the year with some fun Welcome Week events, including indoor roller-skating rinks, K-pop themed pub night, escape rooms, and the Connor Price concert! We had over 400 students visit our roller skating rinks at both Trafalgar and HMC campuses during Welcome Week.

  • Wellness Week at the SSU was a great success. Our goal was to have small pop-up booths on campus that made people stop and just take a tiny break from everything else going on. We had colouring pages, crafts, hot chocolate, and a raffle to win a prize basket.
