Re: Rotary District 9660 Youth Exchange Program for year 2023
The Rotary Youth Exchange Program Committee is seeking your assistance in providing information to potential outbound exchange students for 2023. We anticipate that the successful students will leave Sydney in January 2023 provided that the pandemic and government regulations allow this to occur.
Due to new regulations from the NSW Department of Education, outbound student applicants must be in Year 9, 10 or 11 in the year they make application to be eligible for the program. All outbound students will be required to return to secondary education in Australia for at least one scholastic year. The preferred age of applicants is between 15 to 17 years.
Could your Club please seek out interested applicants from your local schools? If further information is required please direct students to the Rotary Youth Exchange website, or contact a member of the District YEP Committee. Expression of Interest can be lodged on the website www.ryea.org.au and contact will be made with the student upon receipt of this Expression of Interest application.
Applications close on 20th May, 2022.
Could you also please place this information in your Rotary Club Bulletin?
Most secondary schools in the new District 9660 area have been sent information on the Rotary Youth Exchange Program and you may also see advertising on the YEP program.
Your Club’s support with the Rotary Youth Exchange Program is appreciated by the YEP Committee and all prospective students involved in this great program.
