-
Boarding is available from Year 7 to Year 12 with intakes in each year. Accepted boarding places are offered well in advance for Year 7 and for other years when available.
-
Boarders are not required to sit the Year 7 entrance test to gain entry, but they must sit the scholarship examination if they wish to apply for Year 7 scholarships.
-
For entry at Year 10, a limited number of Boarders are offered accepted places in advance. Waitlisted Boarders gain entry to Year 10 on the basis of reports, assessment procedures and an interview.
-
This assessment process applies to all Boarders seeking Year 10 scholarships.
-
Priority in boarding is given to rural and regional New South Wales students.
-
Students enrolled as Boarders are expected to remain as Boarders and our allocation of places depends on this. Boarding is a long term commitment unless the School has previously agreed in writing to the contrary.
-
A boarding place will be converted to a day place only in unusual circumstances and only when the boarding/day numbers allow. A change in status, either before or after commencement, is entirely at the discretion of the School.
-
Boarders may be waitlisted for day places in the hope that a change of status becomes available. However, Boarders in Year 11 must remain as Boarders until the end of Year 12.
-
At her discretion, the Headmistress may allow a Boarder to live at home but there will be no reduction in the boarding fee if there is no suitable day place available.
-
Boarders who become day students must live with their parents and must not live in the care of any other relative or friend, unless specifically approved by the Headmistress.
