Life in Western Australia

Our Western Australian lifestyle provides a wonderful mix of outdoor adventure and diverse cultural experiences. This combined with a relaxed pace of life makes it an appealing place to live. It’s no wonder Perth has earned its reputation as one of the most liveable cities in the world.

Culture

Western Australia boasts a culturally diverse population, encompassing a rich and spiritual Aboriginal heritage. The cultural landscape is enriched by the vibrant tapestry of Aboriginal culture, where art, storytelling, and traditions are woven seamlessly, with opportunities to connect with and learn from the world's oldest living culture.

Perth

Perth, the capital city of WA, has endless things to do. People are friendly, the skies are blue and clear, and residents enjoy the beautiful beaches to swim, surf, and snorkel.

Public transport makes it easy for students to explore Perth. Trains and buses operate regularly and take people all over the Perth metropolitan area. The transport system is simple to navigate and safe for students to use.

Socialising

There are also events and holiday programs to connect international students with other students who may attend different schools. These allow students to connect, make friends beyond their school community, and enjoy fun activities.

We acknowledge and respect the traditional custodians of the lands and waters on which our students live and are educated throughout Western Australia.

We acknowledge and understand that Elders, parents, families and communities are the first educators of their children and we recognise and value the cultures and strengths that Aboriginal children bring to the classroom. Aboriginal people have a long tradition of teaching and learning through sharing their connections with country, community, language and culture, and through their oral histories, stories and lived experiences that are passed from generation to generation. We recognise and value the learning that Aboriginal children bring with them from their homes and communities into the classroom.
