International Programme
St
George's has many international links with schools and institutions
in Europe, the USA, Canada, Australia, Chile, South Africa, Rwanda,
Russia, China and a whole host of other countries. Many of our
students participate in exchanges, work experience and visits and
it is always a life-enhancing experience for them.
From a very early age there are classroom connections and
international projects with partner schools in Italy, Germany,
Russia, China, Australia, the USA and Africa, where many girls
communicate via the internet and video conferencing as well as
setting up common websites. Senior students can also join adventure
and community project trips to far-flung places. Recent
destinations have included Uganda, Brazil, Peru, China and
Antarctica.
From local to global there are regular study tours and field
trips, as well as music and sports tours. Our students learn
a great deal about other countries and cultures, but also develop
skills through the experience of spending some time in a different
environment and in circumstances where they have to be more
independent and self reliant. St George's welcomes exchange
students, teachers and visitors from all over the world, who along
with our own international students, add to the rich diversity of
our community and so enhance our learning environment.
St George's is constantly developing its international
connections, and is proud of its place in the global community.
