| 2011 Semester 1 |
Orientation is held the week before classes start and is aimed at assisting new and returning students in getting familiarised with their environment and surroundings while studying and living at NFIH and CDU. At NFIH we provide an extensive program of activities and events to all new and returning students at NFIH. Each semester we include the familiar and also new activities exclusively to our residents.
Here are some activities we had for Semester 2, 2010.

Semester 1 2011
New and returning residents of NFIH for Semester 1, 2011 are strongly encouraged to arrive or return to NFIH on Sunday 13 February or Monday 14 February 2011. NFIH reception staff will be available to help you check in on both days.
Arrival on the above dates will allow participation in our special Orientation Program designed to help you become adjusted to life here and involved in a vibrant NFIH community. For new residents, this really is an important part of making the best start you can for your time at NFIH and your university life in Darwin. For returning residents it is a great opportunity to make new friends, help new people to settle into NFIH and generally have a bit of fun before the pressures of study recommence.
