School

Our partner school is located on Ann Street, in the heart of Brisbane and just near the central train station. You will find everything you need nearby: restaurants, bars, cinemas and shopping centres. Or, if you are looking for peace and quiet, the 17 hectares of South Bank Park provides a veritable oasis of greenery in the heart of the city. The school is housed in a modern building and provides comfortable and well-equipped classrooms, 3 computer rooms and a modern multimedia centre with a language lab. Internet access (WiFi or ADSL) is free of charge, and when it comes to relaxation you will be spoilt for choice: a terrace, indoor pool, gymnasium, kitchen and cafeteria are all at your disposal, as is a garden terrace on the rooftop.

Accommodation

Host family
This accommodation option will allow you to discover the Australian way of life, to practise English daily in a motivating atmosphere and to get the most out of your stay in the capital of Queensland. The families are chosen with care by our partner school and are located about 30-40 minutes from the school itself. Students stay in single rooms, with half-board provided during the week and full board on the weekends, and the host family will take care of your laundry.
You also have the possibility of living in a “room-stay” situation, that is, in a host family but without meals or laundry service provided and generally with several other students.

Leisure

A visit to the east coast is your dream chance to discover the numerous assets of the world’s largest island. Each week, our partner school offers students the opportunity to participate in sports and cultural activities, some free or at reduced prices, both during the week and on weekends. The school also helps you to make your own plans. Excursions, horse riding, bush walks, dolphin and whale watching or weekend trips to discover the region’s highlights: the Gold Coast, Surfers Paradise, Byron Bay and Fraser Island, to name just a few, are quite simply not to be missed.
