“During each term of Council a student exchange takes place, we will be sending selected students to Shibetsu, around the July school holiday period next year.” Mayor Walker continued.
The students will be hosted by Trinity Catholic College families and will attend classes at Trinity Catholic College and Goulburn High School.
For a truly unique hands-on experience, a trip to the Taralga Wildlife Park has been planned.
