Dear First_Name

We hope you’ve been able to take part in some of the co-curricular activations and events this semester. We’re already starting to think about next year and hope that you might be able to spare five minutes and complete the Student Service and Amenities (SSAF) survey. The link was sent to your student email or you can access it under the evaluations section in LEO. By completing the survey, you are providing valuable feedback on how your SSAF could be allocated in 2023. Now for the fun stuff… students who complete the SSAF survey will go into a draw for a chance to win an Apple Watch or Flight Centre voucher in the amount of $500. The survey will close on Sunday 18 September 2022. If you experience any technical difficulties or have any questions, please contact evaluations.cei@acu.edu.au. We look forward to receiving your feedback and thank you in advance for your participation.

It’s our national day of action when we remind Australians that every day is the day to ask, ‘are you OK?’ and start a meaningful conversation whenever they spot the signs that someone they care about might be struggling with life.

We'll be spreading awareness with free food, music, activities and more!
