Accommodation

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.


Leisure

Few cities offer as many possibilities as Sydney: 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!
