The Sister School program visit to Japan aims to provide Pascoe Vale Girls College students with the opportunity to improve their comprehension and oral expression of the Japanese language, discover the Japanese lifestyle and culture, experience the daily life of a Japanese student and family and build long lasting friendships between Japan and Australia. This unique experience will be enriching from a social, cultural and educational perspective and open students’ minds to a whole new world. Students also take on the role of ambassador for Pascoe Vale Girls College with an international focus.
The trip to Japan comprises a home stay with a family from Toyota High School a number of days exploring Tokyo, a day trip to Kyoto and a couple of nights visiting Japan’s ‘Kitchen’ in Osaka.
