Culture

In Term 1 the college celebrates its cultural and ethnic diversity with a Cultural Food and Entertainment Festival, and a week of activities designed to share cultural learning.

Students enjoy a wide range of cultural groups within which they can connect with others from their home country and share their cultural heritage. These groups reflect their multi-cultural diversity of our student population. 

Maintaining and growing the college's friendships with schools in other parts of the world gives students various opportunities for travel and international cultural experiences. Hosting students from Germany, Japan and China every second year, and visiting their countries in the alternate years is an important aspect of life at Lynfield. In 2011 Lynfield visited Germany, while our Chinese friendship school visited us. Unfortunately our 2011 visit to Shinagawa in Japan had to be cancelled due to the natural disasters suffered by Japan.

In 2012 Lynfield visits China in April. Information on this is available under the International Exchanges section of the website.
