Santa Students On Exchange
This year, 11 French and Italian Language students in Years 10 and 11 will be traveling to Italy or France on exchange. Students will be spending 6 or 8 weeks immersing themselves in the Italian or French language and culture.
To be immersed in a language, practising daily is the best way to fluency, but it takes courage to leave the comfort of home in order to do that. It isn’t easy, particularly at the start, but as time passes students discover that their fluency improves greatly. Friendships are formed and experiences are had that are treasured for a lifetime.
We wish our Santa students on exchange all the very best.
Buon Viaggio! Bon Voyage!
