It’s hard to believe, but in less than three months, the majority of OzTREKK’s students will board the plane to Australia!

To best prepare them, OzTREKK hosted its pre-departures sessions across Canada last week, where Matt, Beth, Alison, Cathy, Nicole and Shannon offered tips and insight into preparing for the trip and school as well.

Early last week, Matt and Beth travelled to Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary, where they met students and their families - they had a great time, and as Beth always says, these sessions are rewarding, because it’s the last step OzTREKK does before the student gets to Australia.

OzTREKK's Matt Miernik speaks to a full Hart House at the afternoon session.

The entire OzTREKK staff then set up a session at the University of Toronto’s Hart House on Oct. 25, where two sessions took place. More than 200 students and family members attended the event, and the admissions officers had a great time having the opportunity to personally meet the students they have worked with over the course of the year!
