To expose students to different cultures, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of global diversity. This includes visits to heritage sites, museums, and school visits, providing students with a practical understanding of their academic subjects from an international perspective. 

2. Global Awareness / Perspectives

To cultivate a global mindset, encouraging students to think beyond their local context and understand global issues and their implications as well as developing a sense of responsibility towards global issues.
