On 3rd October 2026, MSSM teamed up with MALECS and MCOT for our flagship joint freshers’ event, MKita, with MALECS taking the lead on organizing this year’s edition! 🏆🇲🇾
Designed as an Amazing Race-style challenge across campus, MKita gives freshers a fun, high-energy way to navigate the University of Manchester while forging lifelong friendships.
Gathering at Brunswick Park, teams set off with two society facilitators to tackle main station challenges and bonus mini-quests along the way:
- 🎈 Whitworth Park: Balloon Walk
- 🧠 Brunswick Park: Bottle Matching & Memory Race
- 📸 Students’ Union: Picture Matching
- 🧩 Alan Gilbert Learning Commons (Ali G): Puzzle Relay
- 📲 Bonus Quests: Recording TikToks & hunting down all three society presidents for handshakes!
The competition was fierce, but a massive congratulations goes to Max and Aviennash’s team for taking home 1st place with an incredible time lead over the field! 🥇💨
A huge thank you to Education Malaysia London (EML) for funding this event and helping us make it a massive success.
