11-24.3. SportsHopping
Have you forgotten your New Year’s resolution to get a gym membership? Doesn’t the gray slush outside inspire you to go for a jog?
Don’t worry! Aava’s Sports and Wellbeing Committee is here to help and is once again organising the popular SporttiApprot. We now invite you and other Aalto members to rediscover your motivation for exercise through a variety of sports try-outs!
The try-outs last for about one hour and are held over a two-week period, so the most enthusiastic participants have time to try out several sports.
Also join our Telegram group (t.me/+jtDk-NPVlTxjMWRk).
The group provides more information on the try-outs and notifies you of the available places!
P.S. If the joy of exercise alone is not enough to get you off the couch, it’s still worth signing up for the try-outs to get the amazing overall badge!
WHAT? Sports try-outs
WHEN? 11–24 Mar 2023 (2 weeks)
WHERE? Otaniemi/Helsinki
The year 2024 is Tempaus year
The eight-year wait is over. The rumours are true – the year 2024 is Tempaus year!
Tempaus harnesses the collective power of students to inform the public about issues that students consider important and topical. The last Tempaus took place in 2016, with the aim of raising the importance of basic education to a national debate.
Tempaus 2024 is aimed at the entire Aalto community, regardless of the year or field of study. More information about the theme and practicalities will be announced during the spring. Follow our information channels to stay updated!
