Nobody told us the Student Hub crew was this competitive 🏌️‍♂️

On Friday we took the crew to Topgolf Gold Coast for an afternoon of games, burgers and drinks. Some of you swung like pros, some of you were still learning, and everyone ended up cheering each other on. That’s the best kind of afternoon. ⛳️

Missed out this time? Don’t stress, there’s more Hub excursions coming up, so keep an eye on our page.

Meet Bea - one of our 2026 Mayor’s Student Ambassadors 💫

Bea has only just finished her degree at SCU, and what a journey it was. She studied full time with the ocean on her doorstep, juggled two jobs on campus and got involved with marketing campaigns for the uni. Outside of class, it was surf sessions, beach handstands and adventures with friends, and she even started 'Get Me Outside' so everyone could join in and get outdoors. 🎓🌊
