I am doing very well at The Cathedral School, and am being well looked after. The school is great fun and the first six weeks have flown by. My host family is super nice and we have already done a lot together. I feel very much at home here in Australia. And I could easily get used to the sea in front of the house! There are very nice people at school and I’ve already made a group of friends. They are all great and fun. Townsville is fantastic because it has beautiful weather, a great beach, delicious restaurants, and much more.
The Cathedral school is a great school. There are many friends and kind teachers. At breaktime you can play handball which is a popular game in school. I loved playing handball with my friends, we had great fun. There is a big lagoon with ducks which you can enjoy sitting around or just walk along side. The Cathedral School has big trees and a huge sporting complex as well as a library called the Wonder Hub which you can read fun books with your friends. You can learn how to swim in HP class in the hot summer too. I hope you enjoy The Cathedral School.

This is an exciting opportunity for new boarding students to experience Cathedral boarding firsthand.
