More than a room
Right from the time you check in, there will be great opportunities to meet new people and experience all that campus life has to offer.
Your experience at Yarra House is our core focus. That’s why we’ve dedicated ourselves to creating an exciting and supportive community with a unique residential life program designed to help you Live, Learn and Grow. Check out our event calendar to see what’s coming up!
Our program is designed to suit the residential community and we’re always open to your suggestions. Please let us know if there’s an event you’d like to see at Yarra House.
Live
There are always plenty of ways to meet new people and have fun, from pancake breakfasts, sporting competitions and movie nights to themed parties, ski trips and surf lessons.

Learn
Of course, we haven’t forgotten the reason you’re studying in the first place. We help promote academic success with study groups, senior student support, purpose built study spaces, seminars on exam techniques and more.
We also have great facilities to support your studies, with high-speed internet access and a brand new student centre and library on campus accessible to all NMIT students.
Grow
We offer plenty of opportunities for residents to learn about different cultures, contribute to the community and learn new skills that you can use throughout TAFE and beyond.
Events may include classes on cooking and cleaning, resume writing workshops, international food festivals, guest speakers and involvement with local charities.
