Monthly Mingle

Well, some students may ask, what is a Monthly Mingle as those that came to this months Mingle were pleasantly surprised...

The Monthly Mingle is an event held each month somewhere in Carlton where staff and students get the opportunity to 'mingle'. This is where we can get to know one another in a relaxed atmosphere over a coffee, hot chocolate or cold drink. Students have the opportunity to talk about any of their concerns whether it be relating to UniLodge or not and it also gives everyone yet another opportunity to get to know other residents from not only their own building, but from other UniLodges.


So, this month the mingle was held at San Curros on Lygon St where we ordered an assortment of Spanish doughnuts with melted chocolate dip along with some Spanish hot chocolate with ice-cream in it called a 'hot cold'. Over this delectable morning tea (which was breakfast for some of our students) we proceeded to chat about everything from scary Australian Animals to the traffic in Cairo and Rome to various tourist destinations between Brisbane and Cairns.
1000 or so calories later we then all meandered back to UniLodge with our bellies full of chocolate and some new friends.

Who knows where we will mingle next month? Check out our online calendar to find out when the next mingle is so that you can sign up for the surprise.
