Communications
Intercom
The intercom is to be used only for official College messages. It may be used between 8:00 am and 10:30 pm. No message should be repeated more than twice in five minutes.
Mail & Parcels
Incoming mail and parcels are placed in the Mail Room by College Staff. Members are asked to check their pigeonholes regularly. Your key tag will allow you access in to the Mail Room.
Mail should be addressed to
Your Name
C/- St Margaret's College
333 Leith Street
North Dunedin
Dunedin 9016
Stamped and addressed outgoing mail and prepaid courier parcels may be placed in/on the outgoing mail box at the main door. Staff will empty the box daily during the week and take it to the University’s Mail Room for sending. This is a courtesy box only and Staff assume no responsibility for mail placed in it.
Tampering with mail and parcels is a serious offence.
Notices in the Norris Dining Hall
The Head of College, or in their absence the Dean of Students or a College Leader, gives Members an opportunity to announce notices during dinner just before grace is said at 5:40 pm.
Noticeboards
The noticeboards on the ground floor are only for the benefit of Staff and Members. Notices must conform to good taste. Any notice from an outside organisation must have approval from the Dean of Students or Head of College. The College is a home and we do not sell advertising space to outside groups. Notice boards are also provided in floor kitchens.
Notices are not to be placed on walls, doors, or windows as they damage the paint or look unsightly.
Raftr
Raftr is a private app used by the College for communication purposes with and amongst Members. At the beginning of the year, you will be asked to install the app on your device(s) and create an account. The College does not use Facebook for regular communications with Members.
Methods of Communication
For official and/or personal matters, the College will normally communicate with Members via Raftr, mail, texts and/or phone calls. In particular, Members are reminded to check their emails regularly.
