EXPLORE THE WORLD!

A GAP Year is really an opportunity for a student to take a year off between secondary and tertiary education. There is enormous value to be gained from such a break. It can offer new challenges, opportunities to travel and to see and experience life in other cultures, and give an added maturity that is of both immediate and enduring benefit.

GAP Activity Projects Australia (GAP Ltd) is an international educational charity, registered in the UK, which offers students from 18-20 the opportunity to live and work in a different country and culture for up to a year. It is a chance to experience a different way of life, take a break from studying, challenge you, meet new places and have an adventure.
