Have you ever wondered what the journey through veterinary industry really looks like?

Join us for PSN Story Time this Thursday, Aug 27th, where our amazing vet school staff open up about the highs, lows, and lessons they’ve learned throughout their careers. From challenges that shaped them to moments that remind them why they chose this path, you’ll hear real stories you won’t find in a lecture!

We will be joined by Dr Albert Sole Guitart, Dr Michelle Story, Dr Rachel Allavena, Dr Greg Simmons and our avian and exotics veterinary technician Iffy Glendinning

If you’re interested, please RVSP on Facebook before next Wednesday 26/8/2026. Dinner will be catered!

See you there!

2026 Mental Health Week
Week 5 is coming soon — and we know the semester can start to feel a little heavy… That’s why “Mental Health Week” couldn’t come at a better time!

Take a breather, connect with your peers, and join us for activities designed to support your wellbeing — from inspiring staff stories to practical tips on navigating challenges. Let’s pause, reset, and remind ourselves that looking after our mental health is just as important as keeping up with our studies. It’s always something worth talking about!


P.S.: Separate posts will be shared to RVSP for the events.
