Grammar Stopover and Sleepover

We understand the special challenges our busy families face trying to ensure that their children can participate in the many activities that take place at the School, in particular before and after school.

The School is pleased to offer two services for students from Years 7 to 12 within our Boarding community. Grammar Stopover is available from Monday to Friday and Grammar Sleepover is available from Monday to Thursday to enable students to participate in School based activities. If your child is required to stay in Boarding for a longer period, see information about short term boarding options.
