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, Café 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.

Our Leaders in Action students successfully hosted an incredible Adelaide 36ers Charity Basketball Event, bringing together 72 students for a day full of energy, teamwork, competition, and community spirit.
Throughout the tournament, students demonstrated outstanding sportsmanship, encouragement, and respect, making the day a huge success both on and off the court.
A major highlight was the lunchtime charity game, where staff took on students, with an Adelaide 36ers player joining each side. There was plenty of excitement, laughs and unforgettable highlights for everyone watching!
