Each year a group of students and staff from Ingolstadt spend six weeks in Bendigo. Students attend school with their host student and improve their English skills. In November each year, German language students from Bendigo visit Ingolstadt and spend an extended time staying in a German home, attending classes at Katharinen Gymnasium and improving their German language skills.

Exchange program with Sister School, SMAN 2 Makassar, South Sulawesi. Formerly every second year, a BSSC school group visited our Sister School in Makassar for three weeks. Students had the opportunity to stay with Indonesian families, attend school, make new friends, and of course, go sightseeing at that time. However, at present, government regulations do not permit student/school group travel to Indonesia.

On the other hand, each alternate year, our friends from SMAN 2 Makassar, visit BSSC and experience the Australian way of life for 2 weeks. BSSC students have the opportunity to host an Indonesian student for the duration of their stay in Australia, which is a fantastic experience and improves understanding of Indonesian culture and language.

SMAN 2 Makassar is a senior secondary school with approximately 864 students situated in the large city of Makassar or Ujung Pandang in Sulawesi. School in Indonesia is very different to school in Australia. Each class has 32-40 students and there is a set curriculum to follow, according to which stream a student selects (E.g. Science, Social Science, Language, etc.). Students begin school at 7.15am and finish at around 2pm most days. Students play a wide range of sports including basketball, soccer, badminton, football, karate, hiking, etc.
