Beating the Exam Blues One Event at a Time
This surprise element was met with great enthusiasm, with many students describing it as a "heartwarming gesture."
ANU Student Life hosted the "Wellness Boost Giveaway" on 3rd June; an event aimed at reminding students that "you got this" during the stressful exam period. Despite the pressures of final assessments, the event sought to reassure students that they are not alone, and that ample support is available. The one-hour event was a resounding success, drawing 277 students who left feeling uplifted and appreciated.
The highlight of the event was the "Spin the Wheel" activity, where students could win additional goodies. This surprise element was met with great enthusiasm, with many students describing it as a "heartwarming gesture." The excitement and joy were palpable, as students eagerly spun the wheel, hoping to win a little something extra to brighten their day. The high turnout and enthusiastic participation highlighted the value of such initiatives in promoting student well-being and the importance of small acts of kindness during stressful times.
The event not only provided a much-needed break from exam stress but also fostered a sense of community and support among the students. Based on the positive feedback received, the team is already brainstorming ideas for a Semester 2 2024 version of the event. Stay tuned for updates!
