Recognizing this, the Faculty of Business and Law recently held a field trip for its new international students to Caversham Wildlife Park last Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond introducing them to the wonders of Australian wildlife, the trip was a unique opportunity for students to share their diverse cultural backgrounds, forge new friendships, and enhance their sense of belonging to the Faculty and University. This sense of community was further enriched by a visit to the Margaret River Chocolate Factory, adding a touch of sweetness to the day&#8217;s adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Chocolate-Factory-1000x500.jpg\" alt=\"FBL International students take a group photo in front of the Margaret River Chocolate Factory sign.\" class=\"wp-image-22266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Chocolate-Factory-1000x500.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Chocolate-Factory-740x370.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Chocolate-Factory-480x240.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Chocolate-Factory-1260x630.jpg 1260w, https:\/\/www.curtin.edu.au\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Chocolate-Factory-1520x760.jpg 1520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This enriching experience forms part of a comprehensive International Student Immersion program, generously sponsored by Bupa Insurance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Register for the upcoming Bilya Koort Boodja day trip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As the journey continues, the next experience is a day trip to Bilya Koort Boodja, Northam, on 6 September 2023.
