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.



π Hark! What Learning Through Yonder Classroom Breaks? πΉπ
Good morrow! Our noble Year 10 scholars didst venture forth into the wondrous world of William Shakespeare, where kings did rule, lovers did swoon, and villains did scheme.
With crowns upon their brows, masks upon their faces, and roses in hand, our students embraced the spirit of the Bard through lively performance, merry laughter, and spirited exploration of his most famous tales. They did discover that though four centuries have passed, Shakespeare's words still hold great power to entertain, challenge, and inspire.
"All the world's a stage," and for one memorable day, our Year 10s didst prove themselves most worthy players indeed.

Last term, Mr Louis' Year 10 Art class took on the immense project of painting a mural at St Agnes School. We are extremely grateful to St Agnes for trusting us to decorate their walls, and we hope that the mural brings the St Agnes community joy for many years to come.
A big thank you must also go to our students, who worked diligently to develop their skills, work together as a team, and persevere through challenges to create the final mural. You should all be incredibly proud of your hard work, dedication, and the outstanding result. ... See MoreSee Less
π **SLEEP IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU THINK!**
Is your teenager getting enough sleep?
Sleep plays a vital role in a young person's **mental health, wellbeing, learning, concentration and development**. With busy schedules, screens, social media and late nights, it can be challenging for teenagers to get the quality sleep they need.
π΄ When young people sleep well, they are generally more focused, happier and better able to manage their emotions and daily challenges.
