Here’s what’s on the agenda:

🏆 Welsh Bingo – Test your luck and your knowledge of all things Welsh!

📚 Useful Study Tips – Handy hacks to make your student life smoother.

🤝 Interactive Fun – Chat, play, and laugh with other students.

🎮 Interactive Games & More – Because who doesn’t love a good challenge?

So grab your laptop, a cuppa, and maybe even a Welsh cake or two, and join us for a night of community, culture, and fun!

Don't worry if you can't make it, we will also be hosting a stall at the Welcome Fair, which will be held on Saturday 27 September on the Open University campus in the Library Atrium. 

How to join:

Head to the Welcome Week conversation on OU Student Connect, where all event links will be posted on Friday 26 September (the day before Welcome Week begins).

This ensures that only OU students can access Welcome Week events. You don't need to create an account; you will be redirected to your OU login page and can join OU Students Connect that way.

Please read our Code of Conduct before joining this session and keep this in mind when taking part.
