Looking after your wellbeing at uni isn’t just about exercise or eating well – it’s also about finding spaces where you feel connected, supported and free to be yourself. That’s where the Club House comes in!
Located in the Agora at our Melbourne (Bundoora) campus, the Club House is a brand-new multipurpose space designed to help you unwind, meet new people and make the most of your time at La Trobe. Whether you’re catching up with friends, joining a club event or just taking a breather between classes, it’s all about feeling your best – socially, mentally and emotionally.
The Club House is proudly backed by Medibank, whose support helps us bring meaningful health and wellbeing initiatives to life for our student community. Thanks to them, we’ve created a space that puts your wellbeing front and centre.
