Accomodation

Host family
Sharing the daily life and experiences of an Australian family provides an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself in local life and to practise your English in a warm and friendly atmosphere. You will live about 45 minutes away from the school and will stay in a single room. You will share breakfast and an evening meal with the family throughout the week.
"Montpelier House" Residence (from 18 years)
For those wishing to stay in the city centre with the possibility of meeting other international students, our partner school in Sydney proposes staying in a residence. "Montpelier House" is situated around 10 minutes away from the school. You will stay in a single room and will share common areas (living room, bathroom and fully-equipped kitchen) with the other students. The residence's rooftop terrace offers a superb view over Sydney and has a BBQ area which you can use for unforgettable evenings.

Leisure

If you want to make the most of your free time, few cities offer as many possibilities as the New South Wales capital: beautiful scenery, beaches ideal for sunbathing, waves perfect for surfing and first class cultural events. You will also find a large range of sports (surfing, sailing, horse-riding, swimming, bike-riding, bush walking etc.) to help you let off steam. Each week, the Platypus club organises parties and outings so that you can enjoy your stay in Sydney to the full, meeting and sharing your experiences with the other international students from the school. For going out at night, Sydney city-centre is full of cinemas, theatres, pubs and nightclubs: something for everyone!
