Students - Welcome (or welcome back) to Canterbury!
- Students - Welcome (or welcome back) to Canterbury!
- Student reunion celebrations are part of the uni-experience: work hard; party harder.
- Balance revelry with respect for neighbours consequently too tired to arise for work..
- Are you aware of the current campaign to oust students from communities?:
- Enjoy yourselves, but remember, when returning from a night out:
- Avoid continuing parties outside – in the garden, street or en-route in residential areas.
- Noise is normalised – when everyone joins in - until the police arrive!
- After a few drinks, few are conscious of volume.
- Be different – stand out for the right reasons, stand up for what is right! Be a leader not a crowd follower!
- Should neighbours ask you to be quiet, politely apologise respecting their need to sleep - without retaliation.
- Some residents work shifts or simply wish to sit quietly in their gardens undisturbed.

- Rubbish Disposal is also important - avoid furry friends sharing your home and non-furry neighbours sharing your details with the authorities:
- Ensure your rubbish is collected on alternate weeks in:
- Clear Recycles Sacks or
- Black Lid Wheelie Bins (called Landfill).
- Each house has a Rubbish Collection Calendar leaflet from the City Council showing
- the day,
- date and
- type of collection.
- Enjoy!
