The Book List will be distributed during Student Registration on Monday, 5 August. Orientation Activities & Workshops **All orientation activities are compulsory unless stated otherwise. Students are strongly discouraged from missing any workshop or activity, as attendance will be taken. Orientation is a crucial part of our program as it offers you an opportunity to make friends in a fun and relaxing manner, and to experience Australian culture before beginning a very intense year of studies. The program is designed to assist you with the start of your international educational experience at Trinity College and Melbourne. You will participate in a series of group activities as part of the orientation. Each group is led by a staff member, who will help you familiarise yourself to your new surroundings and provide support and assistance as required. Groups will participate in a varied and stimulating program which includes indoor, outdoor, team-building and creative activities. All activities are conducted in a safe and supportive environment. Each group of students will link up with several other groups at different times during the activities. This will enable you to meet lots of other students who will be studying with you. You are advised to dress in clothing suitable for winter. The temperature is usually between 2-15˚C and cold, wet and windy. Clothing should be comfortable and casual. Dress in layers and wear covered shoes.
