[00:00:09] Imagine a school here in the heart of the Sunshine Coast. Only an hour from Brisbane and less than 10 minutes to Sunshine Coast Airport and so close to the beach you can ride a bike there. Imagine a school where learning is exciting. Where students can write and produce their own music, take a field trip to Cambodia and the Great Barrier Reef or study biotechnology. In fact marine science and aquatic practices subjects allow students to immerse themselves in our state of the art science laboratories as well as the marine environment. 

[00:00:49] Our surfing program is popular and it's not just about hitting the beach. Surfing is a multi-billion dollar industry and students learn about tourism, events, career opportunities, safety and equipment maintenance and protecting the marine environment. International students at Maroochydore High take a surf awareness and safety course on arrival. But, it's not just sun, surf and a world class education we have to offer them. Our location is perfect for enjoying all the Sunshine Coast has to offer from the natural beauty of our hinterland to the vibrant festival culture of Noosa. Our international students are encouraged to experience the best of Australian cultural experiences during their stay. With trips to Sydney, Fraser Island, Brisbane, Heron Island and of course our local Sunshine Coast attractions. Australia Zoo is just around the corner along with beautiful national parks and fun local markets. International students get to experience the typical Sunshine Coast lifestyle and become part of the family in their homestays. But no matter where you're from or who you are at Maroochydore State High we help each student find their own path to success.
