ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ College is a Round Square School

At ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ College, students are encouraged to look beyond the Southern Highlands and engage with the wider world. The Round Square program helps ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ students do just that, providing opportunities to connect with a global network of schools and reinforcing the values at the heart of the ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ experience.

Round Square’s principles are a natural extension of ΒιΆΉΚΣơ’s own values. The program offers students the chance to put them into action in a global context.

β€œRound Square opens up doors for our students. It’s a bridge to the world, and it helps build on the values that make ΒιΆΉΚΣΖ΅ special.”
