Students invited to morning tea at chambers 

It’s not everyday you get invited to join the City Mayor for morning tea.

First year CQU Bundaberg students from overseas and other parts of Queensland joined Mayor Kay McDuff at the inaugural event hosted in the Mayor’s City Office last week.

They came along to advise the students on what is available in terms of attractions and facilities in their new home city.

Cr McDuff said she plans to make the day an annual event.

“Both myself and fellow Bundaberg city councilors place a high value on firstly, having a CQU campus in the city, and secondly, on the quality of education offered here and its appeal to students., “ Mayor Mc Duff said.
