The Australian University fair will be held in the MPH between 12.30 – 2.00pm and we will be happy to see many Uplands parents as well as our Year 10-13 students attending.

There will also be a full Australian Fair at the E&O Hotel on Sunday 4th March – 12pm till 5pm with around 25 universities in attendance.

This is pretty much a marketing ploy by South Australia in bringing two UK students to explore university life in Adelaide. However it does bring up some useful comparisons.
