Exchanges

St Margaret's School provides students with the opportunity to participate in international student exchanges, a consequence of our commitment to the Queen Margaret of Scotland Girls' Schools Association. Past students have had the fortune to explore renowned locations such as York (England), Aberdeen (Scotland), Wellington (New Zealand) and Christchurch (New Zealand) as part of the exchange program.

The program is a prominent component of international engagement and is designed to enhance the personal and educational journey of the St Margaret's School and Berwick Grammar School students. The resoundingly positive response from past participants in the exchange program is a testament to its popularity and success. As a consequence of the school community's enthusiastic reception to the international exchange program, opportunities for students will undoubtedly continue to expand, with a wider assortment of exchange locations to be offered in the future for our senior girls and boys.

Exchange Testimonials

There's nothing quite like diving head first into something new and exciting and I can surely say that a student exchange is, without a doubt, the way to do it.

The exchange was an experience that enabled me to actually live on the other side of the world in a life very different to my own. I feel that my trip has helped me to mature and become more independent and confident.

It has been one of the most amazing experiences of my life and I would definitely do it again.

I saw many places I would never have dreamed of seeing with memories I will never forget.

My school time was always enjoyable, challenging and diverse. I found all the teachers at St Margaret's were friendly, very helpful and committed.
