NORBREX RULES AND CONDITIONS FOR ROTARY YOUTH EXCHANGE STUDENTS
Dear Incoming Rotary Exchange Student!
Greetings from Brazil, your home country for the next year, which will probably be one of the most
special periods of time in your life.
We do our best to make this year an important and unforgettable period of your life. We hope that Brazil
will become your friend, as we hope that your country will have many new friends in Brazil after your stay
here.
On the following pages we have summarized the Norbrex Multidistrict Rules.
These are not new for you, since they are based on the rules set by Rotary International. However,
using our experience in Youth Exchange Program we added or adjusted some of the points, or just made
more detailed comments.
These rules are not against, but for you. The intention is to make adjustment to the Brazilian society, the
local community and to the family as easy and quick as possible. We do not expect more from you than we
expect from our natural children. We understand, of course, that adapting yourself to a completely new
environment can not be done overnight. Please read it through carefully.
We wish you a good preparation and pleasant journey to Brazil and you are sure that we do our best to
help you in every aspect through your new life in Brazil.
SCHOOL
•
You are expected to follow the regular attendance, course, and behavior guidelines of the school you
are enrolled to.
•
You are expected to attend all regular classes. Any missed school days will be recorded by the
teachers. Legitimate missed days have to be recorded in your school-book by the host parents. Any not
legitimate missed days will be reported to the Rotary counselor by the host family.
•
You are expected stay in the school from start of the classes until the last class finishes.
•
If you are not going to school repeatedly, the Rotary Youth Exchange Committee will terminate
the exchange year.
•
The Brazilian secondary school system is not a credit system. Most of the classes are mandatory for
every student. Some school creates a special curriculum for exchange students, while others require
exchange students attending all the classes must participating in.
DOMESTIC TRAVEL
•
Though it is understandable that exchange students want to know the country they are spending their
exchange year as much as possible, traveling intensively is not the only means of understanding the
country, its people and language. Traveling outside the immediate area of the community where the
host Rotary club is located is a privilege and shall not considered as an activity normally accepted.
•
Restrictions on domestic travel are followings:
•
You are allowed to travel within the District with the host family or members of the host Rotary Club. It is
also allowed to travel to and from Rotary organized functions. However, you must still notify their Youth
Exchange Officer and Rotary counselor.
•
Orientation meeting, Christmas and Conference are mandatory.
•
Other travel, including staying overnight outside of the home city must be approved in advance and
writing by the District Committee the Rotary Counselors and by the host parents. You may travel alone
or together with other students only if you are met by a responsible person at their destination.
•
You may allowed to go on school sponsored trips within Norbrex Multidistrict Region which are
supervised. You must have the permit of their District Committee, host family and rotary Counselor.
•
Please note that the host family may feel offended if you often want to go outside of the community!

NORBREX Multidistrict - Districts 4390, 4490, 4500 and 4720
•
Breaking these rules may result immediate termination of the exchange year!
TRAVEL OUTSIDE THE DISTRICT
•
You are not allowed to travel outside alone or with other students.
•
Visit relatives are not part of the Rotary Youth Exchange Program. However, the RYE Committee
exceptionally may allow it, provided it takes place during school break when no Rotary or school activity
is organized. The rules of travel described below are applied. Visiting relatives during Christmas, New
Year and Easter holiday, at host family occasions and in school time is not allowed in any
circumstances.
•
Independent travel with visiting natural parents is usually permitted but should be asked before.
•
Similarly to frequent domestic travel request, host families may feel offended if you insist in traveling
outside the district.
4-D
•
You are not, under any circumstances, permitted to drive a motorized vehicle of any kind.
•
You are forbidden to consume alcoholic beverages. Drinking can result immediate termination of the
program (unfortunately we had to send home a student last year for this reason!)
•
You are not permitted to “go steady” with a boy or girl friend
•
You are not permitted to use any drug, except ones prescribed by a physician. Student using illegal
drugs will be sent home at once. Under Brazilian law using drug- regardless the amount – is a criminal
act which is always prosecuted!
SMOKING
•
Smoking is discouraged. You are expected to abide by the host home rules, which can forbid smoking
INSURANCE
•
You must have valid health and accident insurance. The insurance shall provide not less than U$
10.000 or equivalent medical expense coverage, and not less than U$ 8.000 or equivalent accidental
death or dismemberment.
The insurance should be purchased before coming to Brazil
•
You must attach copy of your insurance policy when you send back these rules and regulations
accepted and signed.
RESOLVING PROBLEMS
If you have any problem do not hesitate to contact (in this order)
•
Your host parents
•
Your Counselor appointed by the host Rotary Club
•
Rotary Youth Exchange Inboumd coordinator
•
Rotary Youth Exchange Long Term Chairman
•
Norbrex Multidistrict Vice-Chairman
•
Norbrex Multidistrict Chairman
TELEPHONE AND INTERNET
•
You can use the telephone of the host parents as a privilege, and should not abuse this. You must pay
for their long distance calls. Please keep in mind, that in Brazil telephone services is very expensive and
local calls are charged as well.
•
In Brazil telephone calls should not be made before 9AM, and you must not call after 10 PM.
•
You should salute and always introduce yourself

•
•
•
•
Having a dozen telephone calls during the evening is not only very annoying (for the family), but blocks
them to use their own phone.
The purpose of a telephone conversation is passing over important information, telling news, fixing a
program, but not having lengthy conversations. Telephone calls should be short, not more than five
minutes.
You should limit internet surfing, so you can be with your host family, and so the host family can use
their own computer. Accept if the family does not allow it at all.
E mail is a convenient way to keep contact with your parents, old and new friends. However, the goal of
youth exchange is to have new friends and having the host family as parents. Excessive e mail contact
with the home country can make this process much slower, therefore should be limited.
LANGUAGE
•
You are expected to learn Portuguese as quickly as possible. You should aim to understand and speak
Portuguese in three to four months
•
Some families will organize regular language classes
•
The parents are asked to speak in Portuguese with the students, in the students own interest.
VISITING BY NATURAL PARENTS
•
Your natural parents can visit you during the last three month of your stay. Parent’s visit should be
scheduled carefully, since Rotary or schooling activities have absolute priority.
COMMUNICATION WITH PARENTS AND FRIENDS AT HOME
•
In order to reduce homesickness, having telephones calls to/ from home during the first three months of
the exchange is strongly discouraged.
•
E mail contact is very easy but it has some bad effects: if your life is monitored from home practically
daily, it will not be as successful as could be. While sending an e mail once a week with telling what
happened is fine, sending one every day with all the details of the everyday life is unnecessary and can
be easily confusing.
LAW
•
You are expected to obey Brazil’s law. In case of violation, there will be no assistance from the Rotary
Clubs or from the government of your native country.
ROTARY MEETINGS
•
Attendance on regular Rotary Club meetings is normally required once a month as well as all Rotary
sponsored events you are invited. Such events take priority over all other activities.
RETURN
•
The school year in Brazil ends mid June. You should make your travel arrangements for the end of
June, beginning of July.
Any student who does not live by this guideline will have to accept the consequences; with can
include being sent home.
HOST FAMILY
•
You are expected to become an integral member of the host family, assuming duties and
responsibilities normal to a student your age and the children of the host family.
•
The home of the host family is neither a hotel, nor a dormitory. You must follow the customs of the
family, having meals together and spending large part of their free time with the family.
•
You are expected to tell your host parents where and with whom you are going out and when you will be
home. This includes both weekday activities and weekend programs

During the school week Brazilian students usually stay home and study, unless there is some special
event. Typically you should expect to go out after school only on weekends. (A common problem is
when a family experiences that their exchange student is going out every afternoon, while their own
children are staying home and studying hard. This is a bad example for their children which is hard to
justify)
If there is a special event on weekdays, you are expected to arrive home latest by 10 PM. Exceptions
from this are attending theatre performances, music concerts or cinema, with the prior consent of the
host parents. If, by any reason you realize that you would not be at home in time you must call the host
family as soon as possible.
The hosts are responsible for you socially, spiritually and physically. You should respect their wishes
and request. Guidance and restrictions from the parents are not only advisable, but expected.
You shall not receive visitors without the prior permission of the host family.
You should live as the host family does. Sleeping until late morning while the members of the family are
working around the house or being late for meals the family normally has together can result in
unnecessary tensions. The basic rule of every exchange program is that the student is expect to adapt
the discipline of the host family and not the family to the student
Host families expect their exchange student to participate in most family events. If you have something
special to do you should be sure to check ahead of time with your host parents. You should not plan any
activity outside the family on Christmas, New Year, Easter, birthdays of family members, etc.
FRIENDS
•
You should choose friends slowly and wisely. Trust host families in developing a respectable circle of
friends.
•
You should not go out with other exchange students regularly. The aim of the Rotary Youth Exchange
Program is to understand the language, the people and the culture of the host country. Building
friendship mostly with other foreigners will not help to achieve this goal. Our (bad) experience is, if an
exchange student starts going out with other exchange students at the beginning of his/her stay, he/she
will neither build up a circle of Brazilian friends, or won’t learn Portuguese. Although we understand that
it’s easier to communicate with student who are speaking the same language, having the same
problems and has already been in the country for a while ( most students are coming in August,), doing
it kills the essence of the exchange program. Therefore, during the first three month of the exchange
year you are discouraged to meet other inbounds students. Rotary organized programs are obvious
exceptions.
EMERGENCY FUND
•
A compulsory emergency fund of US$300.00 (American Dollar) or equivalent is required. This money is
primary for emergencies, the fund should be handled to the Youth Exchange District Commission, if the
fund is not used, it will be given back to the exchange student. However, this fund must be replenished
by the students natural parents should it go below US$100.00.
E-MAIL AND WEB
•
We advise that every exchange student have an e-mail address. This will make communication
between the student and the Rotary Youth Eexchange Officer quick and efficient.
