Dear all

As we approach the end of Week 1 (or Week 2 for QUT), I have enjoyed catching up with many of you around the campus. As ICC Sport & Cultural competition recommences next week, I would encourage the College to play with sportsmanship, and for supporters to always be respectful. 

In addition, Adele and Maike have put together a great program for Wellbeing week which commences on Monday. I look forward to seeing most of the College come together for the Community Dinner on Tuesday evening, as well as supporting Forbes at ICC Oratory.

Open Day - Sunday 3 August

Open Day, one of the busiest days of the year, is this Sunday 3 August. A reminder to all residents that the College needs to be clean, tidy and highly presentable. 

If you are assisting with tours, please be on time for your allocated session(s).

Please be mindful of where you park around the UQ Campus. The College received a complaint this week from local residents regarding King's residents parking in permit only locations along the Esplanade. Council will do a blitz next week.
