The school occupies the first two floors of a building that is ideally located in the heart of Brisbane’s financial district. Close to public transport (5 minutes from the train station and opposite bus stops and the Fast Ferry boats that cross the river) as well as the numerous shops and restaurants of the city-centre, the school lets you make the most of life in a rapidly expanding city. The 17 classrooms benefit from excellent natural light, as well as a superb view over the Brisbane River and Moreton Bay. There are two computer rooms available with free Internet access, as well as a relaxation room, a student room and a library. Adjacent to the school you will find a lovely park, and just opposite the fantastic Riverside complex with its cafés and boutiques.

Accommodation

Host family
Thanks to a very good network of host families, students have the opportunity to stay with an Australian family, in a single room with half board provided, and in this way, can discover the Australian culture whilst practising the language in a relaxed and natural manner. The families sometimes welcome other students of a different mother tongue which also allows you to make contacts quickly.

Leisure

Numerous activities are offered as part of the leisure programme. At weekends, a large choice of outings and excursions are proposed to places of interest around Brisbane (Gold Coast, Fraser Island, Sunshine Coast…). Social activities, sports and parties are also frequently available after classes.
