What a weekend, thanks for visiting!
We were thrilled to welcome prospective students and their families over the weekend to the St Mark’s College Open Days.
Our student ambassadors eagerly volunteered their time to share their stories of moving away from home, choosing to live at St Mark’s and starting university.
Guests were able to take a tour of the College grounds and facilities with our students, see the renovations underway for a new study and event space and join us for lunch. They were also able to enjoy a hot beverage from the Green Elephant Coffee Van and sample our student’s baking skills at the St Mark’s Charitable Foundation bake stall that was raising money for our farmers in need.
As one prospective student said “The College looks really amazing and it’s been so helpful to meet students who are really welcoming and honest in sharing their experiences. I’ve heard so many positive things about St Mark’s from other people who have lived here and done well at university, I can’t wait to experience College life and all it has to offer.”
Some guests jumped on the St Mark’s Gas Truck to travel between the city university campuses and the residential colleges in North Adelaide.
Other St Mark’s students volunteered their time at our North Terrace booth to meet people attending the University of Adelaide or UniSA Open Days and share information about the transition from secondary school to university and how to make the most of their university experience.
“It was 6 years ago when we all came in a for a visit and we are so glad we didn’t drive past. Best thing we ever did for our kids! They have loved St Mark’s!” commented one parent over the weekend who has sent 3 of her children to St Mark’s over the past 5 years.
We really enjoyed meeting everyone over the weekend and hope you enjoyed visiting with us.
