Events FUSA ran a diverse range of successful events that combined fun, information, awareness, and education. These events help to build FUSA’s profile as a student focused and student centric organisation. During 2021, FUSA was again challenged by COVID restrictions. However, we continued to strive to engage with students both on-campus and online through a variety of events. We also collaborated with multiple stakeholders to assist with student events across the University. Events and activations included: - FUSA Uni Ball (Great Gatsby) - So Fresh Flinders (Spring Party) - Stop The Student Poverty Crisis - RUOK? Day - Pride Fest - National Reconciliation Week (NRW) - World Tour Through Cooking - Breast Cancer Awareness Month - Keep Australia Beautiful (KAB) - Day for Biological Diversity - Exam Support - University Mental Health Day (UMHD)

Highlights from 2021 include: - Stop The Student Poverty Crisis: Student Council hosted an event to generate conversation and awareness about student poverty, with a focus on four issues that most impact students: (1) Rights to Work, (2) Housing (3), Health & Wellbeing, and (4) Food Security. - Uni Ball: this popular event made a comeback after being on hiatus due to COVID in 2020. Whilst capped at 150 attendees, tickets sold out fast. The Great Gatsby theme proved popular, and the event was enjoyed by those who attended. - Campus Activation: focused heavily on activating the campus with a range of live music sessions and picnic furniture at Bedford and Sturt campuses throughout the year. Orientation Program 2021 FUSA ran a successful Semester 1 Orientation program with activities across several days including clubs, stalls, live performances, free lunch, games and more. O’Week events included a Comedy Arvo, Quiz Night, Bingo Bash and O’Week After Party.
