Home-stays for International Students Needed
We are seeking homestay families living in our local school community for students traveling here from overseas in 2025. These homestays would be long-term, with homestay providers receiving a weekly payment of $400.
Homestays are more than just a room to sleep, they offer the safety, security and welcoming environment of a real family.
Homestay families go through strict screening and monitoring processes by the Department of Education. New homestay providers would participate in an interview with school representatives, as well as home visits by a school representative.
Every member of a homestay household over the age of 18 years of age would also need to obtain a Working with Children’s Check card.
If you would be interested in becoming a homestay provider for our school, please send your expression of interest to sarah.crespo-liu@education.vic.gov.au
