Sayounara Miu and Kaoruko

Our two Japanese exchange students, Miu and Kaoruko, completed their ten week exchange last week and have now returned to Japan to continue their senior high school studies. Miu and Kaoruko are from Shonan Shirayuri Gakuen, our sister Japanese school with whom we have developed a student exchange program.

Each year, we usually host Shonan students for two weeks in August. However, as part of a new initiative, this year two students were hosted for a school term. During the ten weeks, both Miu and Kaoruko participated in mainstream classes, completing homework and assignments all in an effort to improve their English and knowledge of the Australian way of life. The students' stay would not have been possible without the hospitality of two of our College families, the Nott and Potts family. The College sincerely thanks the Nott and Pott families for their generosity and time in hosting these girls to ensure they had a wonderful and memorable experience.
