Host families needed
The University of Newcastle's Homestay program needs your help.
From July, the Language Centre is receiving more than 100 students from Japan for short-term and long-term English language programs.
At this time we are also hosting more than 40 students from Shohoku and Matsumoto Universities on a study tour, which makes it a challenge to obtain enough homestays for such a large cohort.
Most of the students are staying for 3-4 weeks. If you can host a student or know someone who can, please contact our Homestay Coordinator Fatima Shipton on 4921 6777 or 0400 411 616.
Host families are paid for their generosity and assistance.Contact
