Accommodation

Homestay Accommodation
The aim of Homestay is to provide overseas students accommodation with local families in a warm and safe environment. Families are selected after completing our application forms and are then interviewed in their home.
If they are approved as homestay hosts for our College, they are then required to provide a police clearance and Statutory Declaration.

There are many reasons why families offer to provide homestay accommodation to overseas students:
• To contribute to the growth and development of a student;
• To learn about other places, other cultures and traditions;
• To gain the experience of having a student in their life.

Parents of our International students should be assured that their child is living with a family who will care for their child’s safety and well-being, that they are learning about Australian culture and that they have the opportunity to practice English within a supportive and interested family.
