This gives students a taste of another culture and the chance to increase their global network. Summer programs are designed for students who wish to spend the Australian summer abroad to return in time for first semester the following year. Year 11 students in December for 2 months, and Year 12 students for 2 or 3 months before starting university. Perfect for language training, short programs allow students just long enough to start understanding and adjusting to their new culture and for many it's a chance to share in a traditional northern hemisphere Christmas. If you wish to be placed in the same area as a friend from Australia or simply prefer the idea of travelling in a group environment, S.C.C.E. offers the opportunity to travel for 3 - 6 weeks to France, Germany, Italy or Switzerland.
Groups consist of students from around Australia who travel with a trained leader.
Each member of the group is placed with a host family in the same community and many will attend the same school. S.C.C.E. group travel is recommended for those who want a social challenge and are committed to making the most of the cultural homestay experience. You will receive by mail a comprehensive listing of programs. An Evaluation Form will be sent directly to your school and S.C.C.E. will notify you of the time for a Personal Interview. These are held 5-8 times a year in capital cities of Australia.
