Japanese Students Visit

A group of Japanese students visited St Andrews College from 3 August to 5 August in Week 3 Term 3. 11 Japanese students came from different secondary schools in Japan to experience Australian culture and school life. 

The Japanese students had English language lessons in the morning and then they attended our regular lessons with their host students and buddies. All of them had a great experience and we received very positive feedback from them. Of course, our staff and students enjoyed sharing the time with the Japanese students at school during their visit. We learnt something about Japan and its culture from the Japanese students, such as the Japanese language, origami and lifestyles.  

We hope the Japanese students will continue their relationship with their host families and our students. We are now looking forward to planning our Japan Study Tour for next year. We hope we will be able to see them in Japan.

I would like to say thank you to the host families for hosting Japanese students this time. Your support and hospitality were fantastic. Every Japanese student enjoyed their homestay experience. Much appreciated.
