More than 50 international students came together for the Term 3 International Breakfast Club, a much-loved tradition that brings students together over good food, conversation and plenty of laughter.
Held once each term, the breakfast provides an opportunity for international students to connect, welcome new students and farewell those nearing the end of their time at Westlake Girls. The menu combines Kiwi favourites with familiar dishes from home, creating a little taste of both home and host culture.
What began as a simple shared breakfast has grown into a lively cross-cultural gathering, with students and staff sharing stories, building friendships and, on occasion, starting the school day with an enthusiastic round of karaoke!
Hosted by our International Department, the Breakfast Club is ultimately about creating a sense of connection and belonging for students who are studying far from home, and celebrating the different cultures and experiences they bring to our school community.
