Australia is a safe country, but because international students are generally young and inexperienced in the new environment, they may sometimes become targets of criminals. Therefore, international students must pay attention to the surrounding environment. We advise foreign students not to wear handbags and jewels that are too conspicuous and expensive. If you leave alone at night, you'd better let other friends know your location in advance, and finally confirm whether you get home safely so as to call the police in case of emergency.
Second, traffic safety.
Australia is a country that drives on the left, contrary to China, so China students need to remind themselves that they should look to the right before crossing the road. Although this is a small matter, it is very important. No matter walking or driving, international students need to keep a sense of road safety at all times to avoid traffic accidents.
Third, swimming and fishing are safe.
Australia has a beautiful natural environment, but dangers coexist. It is suggested that students, especially freshmen, pay attention to the signs of swimming places and listen carefully to the guidance of the staff in the places. Swimming together is very important, and friends who have problems can help you in time. In Australia, you must be careful of fierce rapids. No matter how good your swimming skills are, the rapids will take you deeper into the ocean. Generally speaking, lifeguards at the seaside will advise everyone to swim in a safe zone. If you enter the dangerous area on the beach, they will tell you, so be sure to follow their instructions.
Fourth, the safety of outdoor activities
The scenery in Australia is so beautiful that it can even distract you sometimes. If you are outdoors, you must be alert to the surrounding environment to avoid unnecessary dangers. Be sure to travel with friends and take care of each other. Especially when taking pictures on cliffs or mountainsides, if there are signs, you must be in the designated fence. Be careful that the stones on the cliff may slide down or the stones under your feet are unstable.

Intransitive verb economic fraud
There is no legal institution in Australia that can directly search the account number and other information you need to pay by phone or email, unless you have established a corresponding relationship with them in advance. If someone contacts you and claims to collect money from official institutions, you must first verify their identity. The simplest trick is to ask them for a public service number. You can call them back later, and then you can search online to see if this number is the contact information of a legitimate organization. Once you have confirmed this, call them and discuss what they need.
Seven, the problem of working.
Australia's labor protection laws are very perfect. International students are often easily squeezed by employers because of their lack of experience and desire for work. It is very important to know your rights as an employee. It is best to go to official website, Fair Work Committee, know these rights before going to work, and use the "payment and terms" tool on the website (payment
And condition tools) to calculate the rewards and rights you deserve. You can also call 13 1394 for more information.
Eight, physical and mental health
For parents, children are far away from home, and the most important thing is safety and health. Maintaining good physical and mental health is an important guarantee for international students to successfully complete their studies. Many foreign students will feel uncomfortable when they go abroad, or they will feel uncomfortable when they are far away from their family and friends, so they need to be prevented and guided in advance.
