Sydney & Melbourne
This camp is perfect for students who would like to improve and
perfect their English in two of the greatest English-speaking
cities in the world.

With its golden beaches and excellent
infrastructure, Sydney is globally
renowned as a modern paradise.
Students will visit some of its most
wonderful attractions such as the
Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge
and The Royal Botanic Gardens.

Compared to Sydney, Melbourne has
more of a European flavour to it and is
just as exciting. Students will visit the
Puffing Billy Steam Station – one of the
most popular steam heritage railways in
the world. There will also be Lakeside
visit – perfect for those happy photo
memories.
