Otago University and Otago Polytechnic students can book rooms at the Clubs & Societies Centre free of charge! Our facilities are available to all students—not just OUSA-affiliated clubs.

Whether you’re looking for a space to exercise during a study break, practice a hobby, or meet up with your study group, we’ve got you covered. We offer study/meeting rooms, dance/exercise spaces, and music rooms—all just a short walk from campus.

Students can book rooms for up to 2 hours per day, up to 2 weeks in advance. For longer bookings, check out the details below.
