Mac.Rob and Melbourne Exchanges
Adelaide High School has taken part in annual exchanges with Melbourne Boys High School since 1910 and Mac.Robertson Girls' High School since 1913.
Held each August, the exchanges are highlights of the Sport Program and social calendar and have been taking place and provide students with the opportunity to compete in a wide range of sports and other events, including thetare sports, debating and chess.
The location for the exchanges alternate each year - the boys compete in Adelaide and the girls in Melbourne one year with the opposite occuring the following year. The experience is certainly a memorable one for all participants and also provides the opportunity for students to create lifelong friendships. Any student taking part in a sporting team for Adelaide High School during the year is eligible for the exchange teams, with selection based on both skill level and commitment.
