12. You may be willing, and it is greatly appreciated if you do, to organise day trips to places of interest. We encourage such excursions but request that you notify Ben Vink Deputy Principal – Student Care if the student will be away from school. 13. Our experience has taught us that open communication between all parties involved (host, visitor, parents, and school staff) smoothes the transition and prevents or solves misunderstandings. Please do not hesitate to ask any questions. You should also establish communication between yourselves and the exchange student’s family well before their arrival. We stress that each exchange is unique. The object of the programme is to have an educational/cultural exchange, where the interaction promotes understanding and personal development. We hope you all have a rich and positive experience which leads to lifelong friendships as you ‘celebrate the differences’.
