Palm Beach Currumbin Virtual Tour Video Transcript

Ilaria: My name is Ilaria and I’m from Italy. I’ve been studying at PBC for one year. The International Program at PBC, it’s fantastic. The international teacher and International Co-ordinator have always been there for me and they have been really helpful. Originally, I was supposed to stay here for six months but I enjoyed myself so much that I decided to stay here one year. The International Program at PBC offer different trips. My favourite trip was in Tangalooma where we played volleyball, we went snorkelling, we went sandboarding and we feed the dolphins. Another amazing trip was in Sydney, where we went to see the Harbour Bridge, the Opera House and we went shopping and I had so much fun.

Yuhui: My name is Yuhui and I come from China. I’ll be here for two years to study year eleven and year twelve. I’m studying a range of academic subjects in PBC which will help me when I return home to study at university. My homestay mother treats me like a part of her family. She’s always very patient and supportive. It didn’t take me long to get used to the new environment because as soon as I arrived I made friends with a group of Australian girls who make me feel very comfortable.
Corentin: Hi, I’m Corentin. I’m from Germany and I’m studying at PBC for six months. I chose PBC because of the tennis excellence program. I would recommend PBC to other international students because PBC International Mentors look after you and making sure you that are settling in fast.
Hayato: Hey, my name is Hayato. I’m eighteen years old and came from Japan. I’ve been here since year ten. I’m finishing off high school at PBC. When I’ve finished high school at the end of the year, I’m planning to become a pro surfer. I feel like the surfing program at PBC really helps me to improve my skills. I felt welcome straight away at PBC. I made a friend really quickly. I recommend it to other international students.
Thea: My name is Thea. I’m from China. I’ve been studying in PBC for one year. One of the best things about PBC is there is so many subjects to choose from, such as Spanish, Tourism and Hospitality. My favourite subject is hospitality because I would like to work in the industry. As part of International Program we went to Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. We saw a lot of wildlife animals and I got to pat kangaroos.
Giulia: Hi, I’m Giulia. I’m from Italy and I’m an international that have studied in PBC for six months. My favourite subject at PBC, it’s Art, because I’m able to express myself and the teacher helps inspire me to create the artwork that I love. When I first arrived at PBC, the orientation program helped me so much to feel comfortable with the school. As soon as I met my host family, they make me feel at home.
Ilaria: I enjoy my time at PBC so much. This is an amazing experience and I met so many people from all over the world and people from here. And I know that we are going to be friends forever.
