Educational Exchange Program with Mercedes College, Australia

As a part of Mahatma Gandhi International School (MGIS) ongoing intercultural and educational exchange programme with the Australian School – Mercedes College at Adelaide, fifteen students and three teachers visited MGIS from 24th September to 8th October, 2011. To enrich their educational experience, we organized several multi disciplinary projects and community outreach activities. This exchange program helped students explore, appreciate and bridge cultural differences. They also celebrated Navratri with us, this gave them a better insight about our Gujarati folk dance, Garba.  It also enhanced the educational experience of the students and broadened their personal and cultural perspectives. Moreover it bridged the gap between the two countries and fostered ties through education.
