Manawa
Students can book the Manawa common room for activities by reaching out to staff to place a booking. This space will also be available for external functions catered through Campus and Collegiate Life Services or the University's Events team.
Manawa is a great space to study, relax, watch the big-screen TV, play games, and chill with friends. It also has a rooftop garden terrace surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature and city life.
