CAREY WEEKLY NEWSLETTER 2023 SEMESTER 2 WEEK 7

Mid-semester Study/Reading Weeks

This week started our Study and Reading weeks. As a reminder, no on-site courses take place during this time, aside from the Worship Then and Now block course from 11-15 September.

Also, weekly karakia and community lunches will not take place until week 10, beginning Monday, 18 September. Library hours will remain the same.

As you're working hard on assessments, our staff will continue to be available to support you as usual. Keep up the good work! 

Assessment Support
If you come to a point where you need a bit of help, don't worry, because support is never far off. The library team are keeping normal hours, and Tanya and Eugene are available to chat and help as well.

Don't forget about the 10 Essentials found on CareyOnline. If you're seeking quick help on a variety of relevant topics, these may change your life!

Celebrate our Researching Community

The Carey community regularly produces significant research on a wide range of topics relevant to the church in Aotearoa and across the world. Come celebrate that impact at the CGS Research Conference and Celebration of Scholarship events on 14 September. 

Carey Graduate School students will present research at the CGS Research Conference from 9am-5pm, and we are faculty and students who have contributed to theological research through recently published books, edited works, journal articles, and other ongoing projects at the Celebration of Scholarship from 7pm-9pm. Both events take place at Carey's campus in Auckland. 

Register for the CGS Research Conference and the Celebration of Scholarship events separately, so we can cater accordingly.

Support is here for you! 

Tanya and Eugene (our amazing student support Learning Advisers) have updated their work schedules as follows:

Eugene: Tuesday/Wednesday 9am-5pm
Tanya: Monday/Tuesday/Thursday 9am-5pm
 

They are also hosting workshops where they'll walk through some tips that will help you with your assessments--referencing, 10 Essentials, formatting, using the library, etc. You won't want to miss them!
