The success of a global event like this relies on the kind support of the entire JESS community. Traditionally, visiting competition students are hosted with the families of JESS students. This is an opportunity for JESS students not only to actively engage in an exchange of cultural ideas with other students from around the world, but to also practise their communication skills in a language other than their own.

Full details of the weekend can be found on the other pages. Here we summarise the main responsibilities of a host family
