Global Opportunities

We regularly look for opportunities to provide experiences for our students that expose them to the wider world and what connections can be made around the globe.

There are a range of opportunities available to girls, primarily in the Secondary School, at different times through their educational journey. These include language and cultural exchange experiences with sister schools in countries such as England and France, discipline specific overseas tours that enhance work in the classroom such as History tours to Germany and Italy, Social Sciences tours to China or Science trips to NASA.

The table below provides preliminary information about the global opportunities planned for Secondary students in different year groups over 2021 and 2022. In 2021, these will consist of opportunities within Australia. In 2022, we are hopeful that revised travel and health warnings may permit some global visits. Each opportunity will not be confirmed until much closer to the date, depending on the level of student interest, travel and health/safety warnings, visa arrangements and other important travel considerations.

Please note:

*All trips and tours planned for 2022 are yet to be finalised. We will confirm these based on the health, safety and travel warnings much closer to the time. It is likely that at least some of them will need to be modified, rescheduled to 2023 or later or possibly even cancelled. Please use this schedule as a guide only.
