CAREW COMMUNITY AND CULTURE
Year 10 Exchange Program As part of the EREBB (Edmund Rice Education Beyond Borders) initiative, Year 10 boys were invited to connect and share with EREA brother schools. Due to COVID-19 limitations, we are only able to exchange with St Brendan’s College Yeppoon this year.

The intent of the school exchange is to give Year 10 students an experience of the perspective of ‘the other’. It is a realistic, beginning-level exchange that explicitly builds confidence to enable students to engage in other immersive experiences. It allows for the sharing ideas between schools and further builds the understanding of the larger Edmund Rice Network.
We thank these boys for being outstanding role models for the college, along with teacher Drew Thompson and Michael Parker for accompanying the boys. We are also very grateful to St Brendans College for hosting and taking us on tours of the local area with their host brothers and staff. The exchange culminated with the group going together to Magnetic Island to do the Forts Walk together and share a day of activities in our island paradise.
Ignatius Park College boys involved were: Reece Foley – Baillie Max Gough – Baillie
