Leisure

Our partner school proposes a very wide range of activities of which most are free, and others are at a small charge. Yoga classes, evenings of various activities or excursions are on the programme. A visit to the Melbourne Museum will familiarise you with the culture of the Aborigines or will allow you to have a unique experience : the projection of a film in IMAX format. The Queen Victoria Market is a concentration of lifestyles of the Australians, an open-air market in the centre of Melbourne which will charm you with its cosmopolitan and lively atmosphere. St. Kilda is the place to be if you wish to discover what was long ago a disreputable district of the city, transformed today into a centre of attractions with dozens of restaurants, bars, cafés and beaches where music is omniprésent. A tour of the city, an excursion to the Yarra Valley, reputed for its wine growing, boat outings on the Ocean – everything is possible, you will love it !
