All boarders are full-time (seven- days-a-week) however there is flexibility for students to go home on weekends.

Co-Curricular
Our students are encouraged to develop character and leadership through a variety of enriching programs. With nationally recognised sports initiatives, one of the state’s top Music Faculties, and leadership opportunities like the Duke of Edinburgh Awards and Cadets, students are continually challenged to expand their skills, resilience, and confidence. These experiences empower them to thrive both within and beyond the classroom, preparing them for success in all aspects of life.
