Lynn: It's a once in a lifetime experience and I'm so happy that I can experience this!
This is why I came here, because in Switzerland we can't see such things.

Mr Holloway: International students that come to us really grow and develop and make some lifelong friends. Hello my name is Dan Holloway, I'm the Deputy Principal here at Hervey Bay State High School. Getting in and learning the theory is all good and fun but the real learning happens when you're outside and you get to see the unpredictable. 

Valentina: I'm Valentina I come from Italy and I'm 17 years old. I decided to come to Australia because it's really out of my comfort zone. I really like school here, I also I love the subjects here. They take us on excursions, they actually make us study the things firsthand.
I really loved last night's experience - I've never seen a sea turtle in my life. That was amazing!

Eira: Fraser Coast has many different opportunities for you as an exchange student to see different things: everything from Fraser Island, to going up to Lady Musgrave (Island), which is honestly not that far away.  My name is Eira, I'm 17 and I'm from Norway. I wanted to go on exchange since I was about eight years old and I knew it was going to be a once in a lifetime experience. Pretty cool, yeah, and I feel very grateful that we're doing this.
This is the best classroom in the world.

Lynn: I think this is something you don't do every day. Hi I'm Lynn and I'm from Switzerland. Hervey Bay in Queensland is just great, the school here is very different to Switzerland we have a lot more different subjects that you cannot choose in Switzerland. This is the best classroom in the world! 

Lynn: Only in Queensland

Eira: Only in Queensland

Valentina: Only in Queensland!
