We are excitedly anticipating a visit from Takayama Junior High School, our sister school, who will be visiting the College after a 4 year hiatus. Hosting students will provide your family with an amazing intercultural experience. We have always had such positive feedback from families who have hosted and it is a vital part of our Japanese language program within the College community. The Japanese students are here to experience Australian Culture and our style of family life to improve their spoken English.
We are urgently seeking College families to host the students. There are 45 students visiting and will be here from Friday 4 August to Tuesday 8 August. We are asking host families to host two students.
Families will receive $45 per student per night to cover the costs for the duration of the students’ visit and in return, you are required to provide:
- Transport to and from College as required.
- Instruct the student in how to keep their money and valuables safe while in host homes
- Provide them with a clean, comfortable bed of their own.
- Provide three meals and morning tea per day, including school lunches as required. Should no packed lunch be provided, you will provide money for the student to purchase lunch from the College canteen.

Thank you for considering this wonderful opportunity.
Mr. Byron Mark, Mrs. Fiona Byrne and Ms. Michelle Raft
