MSO Hiking Trip

We’re in the final stretch of the semester and the assignments and quizzes are beginning to pile up. With all the deadlines looming around the corner, we think it’s the perfect time to take a break from uni and get away from campus.

This weekend MSO is going to take you on an exciting adventure, walking along one of Sydney’s most beautiful coastlines featuring an authentic World War 1 hospital, the Middle Head forts and a stunning view of South Head from Georges Head Lookout. With Sydney Harbour as a backdrop, the walk from Chowder Bay is guaranteed to provide you with plenty of breath-taking sceneries as you catch up on all that exercise you missed rushing your assignments. So come join us this Saturday for some outdoor fun, with your favourite group of Malaysians.

Spaces are limited to 20 people, so book your spot now by sending in your name and contact details to Vatsala (043 397 9718) – vatsala.naikka@gmail.com
