Australia’s most famous location is relaxed, cosmopolitan and teeming with life. With its spectacular natural harbour, no city on earth is built around a more beautiful or memorable location.

From the classic beach culture at Bondi to the colonial Rocks area by the Harbour Bridge, Sydney is a vibrant city of culture and entertainment just waiting to be explored.

All students are automatically members of our Platypus Club, which organises social events and outings.

The mountains, national parks and the beaches are an easy train or bus ride from the city centre and offer students opportunities for surfing, swimming, cycling, bush walking, horse-riding and picnicking.

A list of club activities is regularly displayed for students to choose from. The activities are a great way for you to get the most out of your stay in Sydney and broaden your cultural experience. We offer one to two activities per week.
