Pasifika Welcome Day

Pasifika Welcome Day 2023

Date: 25th February 2023

Time: 10:30am - 1:30pm

Venue: Engineering Core, 62 Creyke Road, University of Canterbury

To celebrate the start of a new academic year, a Pasifika welcome is held every year on Saturday at the end of the first week of lectures, bringing together all first-year and returning Pacific students and their families. It is a great opportunity for students and family members to hear from key University staff and meet members of the wider Pacific community.

The day opens with a warm welcome by the University and includes student speakers, special presentations and ends with a Pacific buffet lunch. All students, first-year and returning, are invited to attend with their family.
