01.01.2022 It’s been a long time coming but we finally made it! The hard work and the sacrifices we made along the way have opened up our city and state as we now embrace the new normal here in Melbourne and we couldn’t be more excited. That’s where the ‘Let’s Melbourne Again’ campaign comes in. The campaign centres on getting life back to what made us all intrinsically Melburnians. Whether it’s going to your local cafe for the best latte made by a friendly barista, trying out that n...ew brunch spot in the city with friends, shopping for the best deal at Savers in Brunswick or strolling along the Maribyrnong River Trail with a pastry in your hand it’s time to feel the Melbourne in all of us again! For Graduate House, we’re ready to give you back what made us so unique again a home away from home, safe and clean, a community of brilliant minds and a space in which you can explore, learn and excel. Our doors are open and ready for the next generation of great thinkers. #graduatehouse #graduateunion #gradhouse #melbourne #letsmelbourneagain #carlton #victoria #postgraduate
