Sydney's Study With Family and Friends hosts pizza party 

Published on 30 October, 2006 

The Study With Family and Friends (SWFF) team at CQU Sydney International Campus held a pizza party for all members recently.

SWFF is an initiative designed to make studying at CQU a rewarding experience by allowing SWFF points to be rewarded to students whose family and friends have enrolled at one of CQU's Australian campuses under their recommendation.

PhotoID:3348 Points earned can be accrued or redeemed for various items including text books, stationery, a digital camera, a laptop or even a return airfare home.

Furthermore, all immediate family registered with SWFF receive a 2.5% reduction in tuition fees per semester in addition to SWFF points.

Invitations went out to all of the 2005 and 2006 SWFF participants.

All those that took part enjoyed delicious pizza, drinks and other items including a lucky dip. Students who were not members of SWFF were also invited to gain knowledge about the program.

Study With Family and Friends helps social contact, language use and day-to-day activities become easier and more enjoyable through sharing experiences with family and friends.
