Events

Need somewhere quiet to study and work on your assignments? Do you want to ask someone about study tips and strategies? Do you just want a quiet place to work, but don't want to study alone?

What is Study Hall?

• Study Hall gives you the opportunity to study somewhere quiet, but still have Renison staff nearby if you have any questions or need some help.
• Study Hall sessions are drop-in, which means you can stay for 30 minutes or the full two hours - you decide!
• Peer Leaders will be there to monitor, answer questions, and help with study strategies.
