This is a recent experience shared by one if our international students:

Daisy Do - Year 11 Student

When did you arrive in Australia, and how long will you study here?

I arrived in Australia in February 2022 and will be studying here until the completion of Year 12 at the end of 2026.

Please tell me about your time with your host family.

My experience with my host family has been very positive. They have provided a welcoming and supportive environment, which has greatly assisted my transition to life and study in Australia. I have appreciated their guidance in helping me adapt to the local culture and routines, as well as their kindness in including me in family activities such as weekend outings, shared meals, and community events. Their hospitality has allowed me to feel at home, and I am grateful for the role they have played in making my time in Australia both enriching and memorable.
