Come and experience life in our newest residential college
You will stay in our new residential college Te Rangihīroa.
Accommodation is provided from Sunday afternoon 12 January until Friday afternoon 17 January. This includes all meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner), bed, bedding and towels.
Do I have to share a room?
No, each student has their own room, which comes with bed linen and two towels for the week. If you think you'll need more than two, please bring your own extras.
Do I have to share a bathroom?
Yes. There are multiple showers etc in each bathroom, and the water heating is pretty good, but you need to be considerate of others…
How careful is the supervision?
Obviously Hands-On at Otago is mixed, we recognise the huge responsibility we have been given to look after you. We separate boys and girls, there's supervision on each floor from senior or postgraduate students. There are plenty of social activities which take into account the wide range of ages and interests of the students attending.
