Weekend Homestay for International Students 

 

We warmly invite you to consider hosting one of our international students for a homestay weekend or long weekend.

 

Opening your home is a wonderful way to share everyday Australian life, build meaningful connections, and help our international students feel welcomed and supported during their time at College. Even a short stay can create lasting memories, enrich cultural understanding, and make a positive difference to our students who are a long way from home.  You do not need to have any special outings or events planned - the opportunity to share family life, join in your weekend routines and enjoy home-cooked meals would be lovely experiences for our international boarders. 

 

We would especially like to hear from you if you would be happy to host one of our international students for the King’s Birthday Long Weekend in June. This would be from after school on Friday 5 June until mid-afternoon on Monday 8 June. 

 

Please contact International Student Coordinator, Penny Callinan if you would like to support our international students with a homestay weekend.
