switching internships

knotknowbody

Hey everyone, I'm currently 6 months into a 9 month jobbridge internship it's going well, work is reasonably interesting and am being treated well, there is a very good chance I will be offered a full time position at the end of it, however I recently became aware of another internship in a different company that I would have a much greater interest in working for, the area of work would also be more interesting to me, it would suit me better all round, does anybody know:

1. is it possible to leave one internship and start another one?
2. do i have to finish the current one?
3. when I leave one before completing it do I have to wait a set period of time before I can start another one?

Had a quick look on the jobbridge site and can't see it will look again later but thought someone here might know.

16. What if I start an internship and I realise this placement is not for me, can I do another?
One week’s notice must be given by either party. The HO must logon to their
JobBridge account and enter the early completion (finish date) immediately after early completion date.
