Boarding – but better!

Forget long hallways and dorm blocks – our cottage-style units feel like home. With shared kitchens, laundries, and living spaces, you’ll have the freedom to be independent while still being part of a close-knit group. Each unit houses up to eight students of the same gender, mixing year levels so you’ve always got someone to look up to (or look out for)!

Younger students bunk together, while older ones get their own space – customised with photos, posters, fairy lights, whatever makes it yours. It’s not just where you sleep. It’s where you live!

Food, glorious food!

Great food makes all the difference – and our Boarding Café delivers. Run by expert chefs, every meal is freshly prepared, with plenty of options (and dietary needs covered). Summer nights? Perfect for a BBQ outside. Term time? Expect themed dinners with flavours from around the world.

Each week, you’ll pick your go-to snacks and staples for your unit, so you’re always stocked up. And every morning starts right – with a healthy breakfast in the Café before the day kicks off. Check out a sample daily routine and menu here.

Sport, Training & All the Action

Boarders get full access to the BCGS library, tennis courts, and sports facilities after school and on weekends. Need to hit up sports training or tutoring? Easy – everything’s on campus! Senior students (Years 10–12) also have exclusive access to the gym and weights room before and after school. Looking for more? Join a local sports team or club – we’ll even get you there with our dedicated Boarding bus.

Stay Close to Home – Even When You’re Away

Boarding should never feel like you’re far from family. That’s why we have a Boarding Family Unit, so parents or guardians can stay close when it’s important. Whether it’s for extra support or just to spend time together, it’s here when you need it.
