2011 At NMMU starts with a week long Orientation programme for first year student enrolling in residence. Through the Strategic leadership Conference we prepared the Hakka’s on engaging the first year students on green themes and issues as part of the orientation programme. We also did a drama & a presentation explaining the importance of caring for the environment at NMMU at a conference that was hosted for all new recruits. We introduced the first years on what to expect and how they could get involved in activities GCI will be hosting in 2011.
We also included an orientation session for Unitas Residence, for senior students to introduce them to GCI and the role that they can play as part of the pioneering team of GCI at NMMU. We envision hosting similar events next year in 2012 for both first year and senior residences, in preparation for events to follow in 2012/2013.
