Urban Boarding

Every family’s week looks different. Between work, school, cocurricular and social commitments, the evening routine isn’t always simple – and a long commute can make a big day even longer. That’s where Urban Boarding comes in. Our flexible day, weekly and term boarding options let your daughter stay on our senior school campus after school, so she’s safe, well fed and using her time well. For Perth families juggling a busy schedule, it’s boarding that fits around real life. Urban Boarding gives your daughter:
- A shorter commute, or none at all
- Time and space to focus on study
- Nutritious meals
- Shower facilities
- Uniform & laundry service* (*minimum 2-nights stay)
- After-hours supervision
Choose the option that suits your family – single or multi-night stays, weekly boarding, or term boarding. Whether you’re facing an unmovable work commitment, a long daily drive, or time away for business or a break without the kids, there’s an Urban Boarding option to match.
