Whilst the Australian ski season might have ended, the slippery slope of the end of semester calls forth your best for those remaining written and practical tasks. You’re nearly there! Let’s hope the spring weather makes itself felt on all our campuses for the remaining weeks of semester, because when the weather warms up we know we’re entering end of year ball season. There’s quite a bit happening on campus these next couple of weeks, so remember to treat yourself and chill out from study for the benefit of your mental health. Catch up with others or make new friends at the many free events, and let’s continue supporting each other in our ACU campus community.
Join us on Tuesday 11 October for our inaugural Trivia Tuesday and help us raise funds to donate to CanTeen, an organisation supporting childhood cancer patients. Collect a team of 4, pick a name and get ready for a big night. Food will be provided by BAKSA, so all you need to bring is your competitive spirit. Prizes to be won, and a raffle too.
To raise awareness and celebrate International Day for People with Disability, and Mental Health Month - join Student Life and Campus Ministry for a picnic on the ground floor.
Remember you can text 0488 884 191 or call 1300 638 485 for mental health support 24/7 if you are emotionally distressed and looking for immediate relief and coping options, ways to keep you safe and useful ‘what next’ tips. ACU is trialing this service for six months.

Play ball?
ACU Sport has one eye on the University Basketball League (UBL) in 2023 and wants to better understand our ballers across all campuses. If you play basketball, at any level, we want to hear from you. UBL is a semi-professional national university basketball competition providing a pathway for male and female basketball players to study and represent their university. There are currently eleven Australian universities in the league with ACU entering a national squad next year. Complete the EOI for more information.
