College Information & Events
23 April
Damascus College is excited to be hosting seven teachers and lecturers from Jakarta in Indonesia, led Dr Ibu Niknik Mediyawati.
These international visitors have a long-standing relationship with Damascus through the College study tours to Indonesia, where students and staff have stayed at their facility (Kampung Bloombank) in Jakarta for cultural and language immersions.
The group are thrilled to finally visit Damascus in person and experience everything the College, Ballarat, the beach, and Melbourne have to offer. They have been taking face to face classes with many of the students they had previously met in an online teaching format. They have loved what Damascus offers students and the wider community, and the kangaroos even played their part, on an early morning walk into the bush.
All visitors are highly skilled in education and are presenting at the Victorian Indonesian Language Teachers Association (VILTA) annual conference in Melbourne at the end of next week.
Damascus thanks them for taking time out of their busy schedules to be part of the community and share such wonderful language and cultural experiences.
