Why study at a High School in Tasmania?

Studying at a High School in Tasmania is entirely different experience then any other state in Australia. You get to experience living in Australia’s island state, a very friendly and environmental state.

Beautiful mountains and lakes surround the island, and most the states population lives in the capital, Hobart. Tasmania prides itself on its excellent education; it has a reputation for its high standards of teaching and friendly, safe environment for students.

The costs of living are considerably low, there is an excellent level of student support, and the facilities are of very high standards. Studying in Tasmania therefore will be a quality experience with exciting opportunities to explore the beautiful land.

With only a short flight to Melbourne on Australia’s mainland, students can explore the best of both worlds.
