Japanese Exchange Student

Japanese exchange students report

St Andrews College welcomed two exchange students from Japan this term. One of them has completed her two weeks of homestay program. Her name is Nagi Nakashima. She actually came to our school last year and wanted to come back here this year. So she visited her here by herself. Throughout her second visit to St Andrews College, she enjoyed every single opportunity she had here. I also would like to thank her host family. They kindly hosted her again. Hope Nagi will be able to come to Australia again soon.

Here is Nagi’s report: 

Dear St Andrews College students and staff 

First of all, thank you for accepting me and giving me the opportunity to attend the school. I have had so many good experiences at St Andrew's College. It was a short period of two weeks, but I was able to learn many valuable things because all the students are friendly, kind, and funny. Also, all the teachers are kind. I was able to have a very fulfilling school life. Many people actively talked to me and treated me kindly, so I was so happy. That's why I like the students at this school. And I want to be that kind of student. 

Also, this experience made me want to study English harder, and thanks to the students, I like Australia even more. I think I was able to grow through this experience. I will do my best in Japan without forgetting my experience.

I hope to have the chance to visit St Andrews again. Thank you so much to everyone at St Andrews College!

I wish you all the best of luck!

From, Nagi Nakashima
