âIâve absolutely loved my time as a GAP at PLC Sydney! Itâs such a supportive, friendly, and welcoming community, and no two days are ever the same. Some of the highlights for me have been working with students in the Transition Class (a special education integration program), going on various camps and excursions, and spending time in the Boarding House. Iâve really enjoyed the balance of having structure and routine during the week, while still making the most of weekends and long holidays to explore and travel. Iâd definitely recommend being a Gappy at PLC Sydney!â Emily Newman (current GAP student).
