Sharing life with an Aussie family doing Aussie things in an Aussie homestay is a great way to experience the fantastic Australian lifestyle in the school community.
What a terrific opportunity to learn and practise English with day-to-day conversations with a supportive homestay family, as well as exploring the neighbourhood and making new friends.
Homestay families come in all shapes and sizes, and students are matched to the most compatible family that will provide a caring and safe home but could also have similar hobbies/skills for their student. Imagine always wanting to surf and staying with a family who surf before breakfast every day.
What is on offer at a homestay?
Of course, there is the safe, welcoming and friendly homestay family, but they also provide 3 meals a day, a private bedroom to sleep and study, as well as assistance to travel on public transport for school or other activities.
A staff member from the confirmed school will be waiting at the Queensland arrival airport and drive the student for free to the homestay.
