College meal options

More flexibility than ever

There are now more options than ever before for self-catered living within our traditional colleges.

Meal options for college residents

Self-catered accommodation

Fully self-catered accommodation is offered at Austin Page College, and Wright College & Village.

Mary White also has self-catered options in specific blocks, with a dedicated block kitchen.

Walter's Cafe is located in Austin Page College's dining hall, and offers affordable cafe meals to college residents and the wider UNE community. Other on-campus meal options include Cafe Life, The 'Stro, Sport UNE and the Natural History Museum's cafe.

Catered accommodation

If you're a resident of Duval, Robb, or Mary White college, your accommodation fee includes a meal package of five evening dinners — from Sunday to Thursday.

Austin Page College offers a meal package, which you  can add to your  accommodation fees if you would like cooked meals.

Robb College residents receive five breakfasts, lunches and dinners (15 meals) Monday to Friday.

Meals for college residents, conferences and events are provided by catering contractor, Compass.

Communal kitchens have been fitted into Duval, Robb, Austin Page, and Mary White College. So, in addition to the college meal package and plan, you have the flexibility to cook and prepare meals as desired. Residents can access this facility seven days a week.

A fully-catered option is also available from St Albert's College, a privately owned college located adjacent to the UNE campus.
