IndoAustay Southbound Student Exchange
Each year IndoAustay in association with YMAS Indonesia, facilitate a group of up to 20 Indonesian students to travel to Victoria and experience a six week homestay with an Australian family. The students are matched with a host brother/sister and attend the school of their host. Attendance at school is primarily a cultural experience giving Indonesian students an opportunity to experience Australian school life, and to develop ongoing relationships with people beyond the immediate host family.
Placement of Indonesian students occurs in metropolitan Melbourne, and surrounding regional areas of Victoria.
The opportunity to host Indonesian students has been highly regarded by Australian students studying Indonesian. Improved language skills, greater cultural and geographical understanding and strong ongoing people to people relationships are outcomes highly valued by Australian host students, their families and their schools.
