Emergency systems testing on the Hamilton campus
Attention students and those living in close proximity of the Hamilton campus! 📢
The University’s emergency response systems are being tested today at 1pm. The test will last for a maximum of 15 minutes and you do not need to do anything.
If you are on campus, you’ll hear a siren, and access-controlled doors will lock but you will still be able to leave a building if you need to using the door release buttons.
While we are testing our systems, we encourage you to think about what to do in any emergency scenario.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
