Sensory Friendly Welcome Day
Welcome to Otago Polytechnic’s Sensory Friendly Welcome Day.
If a quieter, low sensory experience is more comfortable for you, please join us for an orientation session on Friday 16th February 2024. This day is geared towards giving you the same orientation information that you would get during Orientation Week, but in a more relaxed, less crowded setting.
During our Sensory Welcome Day, we will be making sure the HUB is as calm and as quiet as possible. You will have a chance to get a tour of the HUB, speak with support staff, ask questions, get your ID card and receive the information you need to start your studies at Otago Polytechnic.
This event is open to all Otago Polytechnic students, and you are welcome to bring your whānau or friends for support.
Where: The Hub - Ground Floor, 85 Forth Street - click here for map
When: Friday, 16th February
Morning Session: 10am-12pm
Afternoon Session: 2pm-4pm.
If you would like to attend, please RSVP to accessibility@op.ac.nz so that we have an idea of how many people to expect. But if you forget to RSVP, you are still welcome to drop in.
We ask all members of the Otago Polytechnic community to help us keep the Hub low key during these sessions to make our campus inclusive and welcoming for all.
