Thailand Exchange Students

For the first two weeks of Term 2 we had the pleasure of hosting 10 exchange students from Bangkok, Thailand.

The purpose of the exchange was for the Thai students to develop a greater understanding of English Language and Australian Culture and for our students to act as buddies in a leadership and welfare capacity. It was great to see our students being so supportive and living up to our school values, in particular the key values of Respect, Curiosity and Empathy.

The Thai students were able to follow their buddies around the school and to each of their classes, listen in on instructions and attempt work set by teachers. The Thai students enjoyed themselves and the company of their buddies so much that most purchased our new school uniform, to wear whilst at BSC and also to take home as a souvenir.

A big thank you to buddies: Alex, Tracy, Crystal, Rikka, Nicky, Xavier, Calum, Tom, Nadine, Erin, Isabelle, Macy and Thomas, and of course an equally big thank you to teachers who welcomed the students into their classrooms.
