What I enjoyed most at Banksia Park International High School were the music lessons. In Japan we donβt have music ensemble. It was new for me to play music with students in the music class.
I also enjoyed the excursion to the city with other international students.
All experiences with homestay and school will be memorable to me. Everything in Australia was new for me. I love this country and this school.

What I enjoyed most at Banksia Park International High School was the excursion camp with the Outdoor Education class. I had the opportunity to try new experiences and at the same time create better relationship with my friend. However, it was a really good way to explore new places and activities in Australia. I was surprised about the variety of subjects at the school, which allows the students to specialise in the subjects they prefer. And participating in Clubs, which helped to create new friendships.
Teachers were very helpful, really understanding and available to answer all my questions.

What I enjoyed most at Banksia Park International High School was the variety of practical lessons which I have never learned in Japan: Photography, CafΓ© Skills, Design, Society & Culture. In my home country, I can learn just academic things.
Teachers were very caring and helpful. Although Japanese names can be difficult to pronounce for most, everyone tried to utter correctly and memorised my name and face.
