To celebrate and introduce you to your peers and the five years ahead, we cordially invite you to attend O’Camp 2012. This event is consistently described by students as a highlight of their time in the degree so book your ticket now else you miss out!

What is O’Camp?: Run by the University of Newcastle Medical Society for all first year students in the JMP, this event is designed to prepare first years for the challenges of medical school and help them get to know their peers better. Students will have the opportunity to meet students across all years of the degree (acting as mentors), gain insight and advice on how to handle the five years ahead from more senior students, make new friends and have loads of fun!

When: 2nd – 4th March, 2012.

Accommodation: Students will be accommodated at the Sundowner Breakwall Tourist Park in Port Macquarie. This is a beachfront facility with cabin and cottage style accommodation (individual beds are provided), free wireless internet and a huge resort style pool!

Food: All meals over the duration of O’Camp are included in the cost of your ticket and necessary dietary requirements may be accounted for.

Activities: O’Camp will feature a multitude of activities including mentor sessions, global health activities, swimming and beach sports, scavenger hunts and epic mixer events at night. Free time is also scheduled so that students can explore the area and have downtime with friends.
