Inaburra’s innovative Global Education Program plays a significant role in developing the values of kindness and compassion whilst offering experiences that change, challenge and broaden the horizons of our students. We feel it is imperative that members of the next generation are able to see beyond their individual and immediate needs, and instead view themselves as part of a global community. The four areas of focus that underpin the itinerary for each trip include enjoyment, learning, service and growth. Our current program gives students a choice of six trips, all varying in levels of distance from home, service and cost.
