- Earth Hour is in March and at UTS we're run energy saving activities across the campus.

There is no spoken word.

Walkers arrive in small groups, sign-in at the reception desk in the foyer of building 1, help themselves to breakfast, and socialise in small groups.
Up to date information on individual events is available on Facebook.
Other periodic events
- Stalls are held on a regular basis, usually to promote specific issues such as car pooling, threatened species, e-waste, etc.
- Clothes swaps are a great way to exchange something you’ve grown tired of. Organised periodically by the Students’ Association.
