SBC Embraces Global Education with Brazilian Students
In January this year, a remarkable journey began for a cohort of 1000  Brazilian students as they embarked on a  five-month ‘Winning the World’ educational exchange in various countries. 500 students were selected to explore opportunities in Australia, with a notable contingent of 100 finding themselves welcomed to Western Australia. St. Brigid’s College was selected to host nine students for six months, of which these students have since immersed themselves in our College and our Boarding community.  Over the past seven weeks, they have embraced their Australian experience with boundless enthusiasm, finding particular joy in the charming presence of our iconic kangaroos and koalas. This cultural exchange not only enriches academic pursuits but also fosters lasting friendships and provides our students with a deeper appreciation for the diverse tapestry of our global community.

Italian: Academic Extension Beyond The Classroom  
During Term 1 our St Brigid’s College Year 3 –8 students were invited to participate in the Education Perfect Global Language Competition in Italian. The EP Languages Championship (EPLC) are a free event where students can compete at their own ability level. This competition is designed to help boost students’ personal learning journey, engage the students with curriculum-aligned content, and motivate them to compete on an international stage. They spent many hours outside of the classroom aiming for the highest possible score.  The competition created a lot of excitement amongst our students and drove a more in depth engagement in Italian. Students who reached medal status within our competition, showing great dedication in practicing the Italian language were invited to a Pizza Party on Tuesday 10th May during lunch time as a small acknowledgement of their achievement. It was great to have the cross section of both our primary and secondary students celebrating their achievements together!
