Mangaluru, Mar 6: St Aloysius Gonzaga School facilitated a student exchange programme with Istituto Leone XIII, a prestigious Jesuit school in Milan, Italy from February 22 to March 2. A team of six class XI students accompanied by three staff members participated in this enriching experience, marking the second successful collaboration between the two institutions.

The programme encompassed lesson observation sessions, host family visits and exploration of Milan's iconic landmarks, offering the participants a comprehensive understanding of the Italian educational system and culture.
