Kia ora koutou,

We’re now into our second week of Study and Reading Weeks—hopefully you’ve had a chance to settle into a good rhythm and make some progress on your assignments and reading. With another couple of weeks before classes resume, now is a good time to check in on your workload, keep an eye on upcoming deadlines, and make use of the support available to you.

If you’re feeling stuck or need some help with an assessment, remember that Student Support is here for you. Don’t hesitate to reach out and make the most of this time to get the support you need.

Keep going, take regular breaks, and look after yourself as you work towards the end of semester. We’re cheering you on!

Over the past month, Carey students in Ōtautahi-Christchurch and Tāmaki Makaurau-Auckland have gathered to just simply catch up and get to know other fellow students over a free cuppa and kai, shouted by Carey's Student Association.

What's exciting is that Tauranga will host the next Carey Cuppa Catchup!
