Residents' Association and Residential Advisory Committee

Rōpū Kainoho | Residents’ Association:

Every year our Halls of Residence form a Residents’ Association. This Association is made up of a Hall elected President and Vice-President and floor elected Floor Representatives. Your Residents’ Association are responsible for arranging student led events and initiatives. They are also some of the biggest cheerleaders for the Hall, supporting our Inter-Res Events and showing prospective students around. Your Hall President will also seek feedback from the Resident body and meets regularly with the Resident Manager to feed this back.

Our self-catered residences elect a student Representative for the whole community, who also meets with and works with the Resident Manager regularly.
