Homestay Families Wanted
Help Merrimac Senior High School international student program and earn $320 per week for expenses

Our U3A has been approached by Tammie Moss, the International Homestay Coordinator Enrolment Officer of Merrimac SHS to to see if any of our members would be ready to be a host family or know of a potential host family who might host a student attending the school under the school's International Student Program and earn $320 per week. Most of the students are aged 15 to 18 and arrive at the school from Germany, Italy, Japan, Brazil, Norway, Sweden, China and other countries. Participating hosts will have a great opportunity to enjoy the students and their culture.
